Abstract

An efficient synthesis of the earlier unknown trichloro- and tribromo(2-ahkoxy-2-phenylethyl)-λ⁴-tellanes with yields of 90 to 100% has been developed basing on alkoxytelluration of styrene with tellurium tetrachloride or tetrabromide in the presence of alcohols. The reduction of tellanes in the NaBH₄-H₂O-THF and Na₂S₂O₅-H₂O-C₆H₆ systems has afforded bis(2-alkoxy-2-phenylethyl)ditellanes in up to 95% yield.
