Abstract
The reaction of N-(2-chloroethyl)benzamide and N-[3-bromopropyl]phthalimide with ArTe- Na+ generated in situ by borohydride reduction of Ar2Te2, has r esulted in N-[2-(4-methoxyphenyltelluro)ethyl] benzamide (L-1) and N-[2-(4- methoxyphenyl telluro)propyl] phthalimide (L-2) respectively, which are pot entially (Te, N)-type ligands. Their NMR (H-1 and C-13) spectra are charact eristic and single crystal structures are solved. The Te-C(alkyl) distance [2.140(8)/2.151(4) Angstrom] is longer than Te-C(aryl) distance [2.107(8)/2 .128(5) Angstrom].
