Abstract
The primary geometry about the Te-IV atom in the title compound, [TeCl2(C8H 6Cl)(C3H5O)] or C11H11Cl3 OTe, is a pseudo-trigonal-bipyramidal arrangement , with two Cl atoms in apical positions, and the lone pair of electrons and C atoms in the equatorial plane. The Te-IV atom is involved in three secon dary interactions, two intramolecular [Te . . . O = 2.842 (3) Angstrom and Te . . . Cl3 = 3.209 (1) Angstrom] and one intermolecular [Te . . . Cl = 3. 637 (1) Angstrom], the latter giving rise to a helical chain. These helices are linked by C-H . . . O interchain interactions.
