Wf. Liaw et al., A DISCRETE CHLOROTELLURATE [CL4TE-MN(CO)(5)](-) - COORDINATIVE ADDITION OF THE METALLOANION [MN(CO)(5)](-) TO TECL4, Inorganic chemistry, 37(5), 1998, pp. 1131-1134
Coordinative addition of [Mn(CO)(5)](-) to TeCl4 resulted in the forma
tion of a discrete chlorotellurate, [Cl4TeMn(CO)(5)](-). The X-ray cry
stal structure revealed the planar TeCl4 unit to be parallel to the Mn
(CO)(4) plane with the inert pair at Te in a trans position to the Mn(
CO)(ax).
