A series of rubidium and cesium tellurocarboxylates (2 and 3) were synthesized from the reaction of O-trimethylsilyl tellurocarboxylates (1) with rubidium and cesium fluorides in moderate isolated yields and characterized by 1H, 13C, and 125Te NMR spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction. The carbon–oxygen distance [1.235(6) Å] of the tellurocarboxyl group of crystalline cesium 2-methoxybenzenecarbotelluroate (3f) showed a typical value of the carbon–oxygen double bond. The crystal packing of 3f shows the possibility of an interaction between the cesium cation and the aromatic ring carbon. The thio- and selenocarboxyl groups of the corresponding sulfur and selenium isologues (4 and 5) also indicate a double bond [1.231(4) and 1.226(5) Å] between the carbon and oxygen, respectively. The salts (2 and 3) readily react with iodomethane to afford the corresponding Te-methyl tellurocarboxylates in good yields. The reaction between 3 and tetramethylammonium chloride was found to give a novel quaternary ammonium salt (8) of tellurocarboxylic acid, where the dihedral angle between benzene ring and the tellurocarboxyl group of 8 is ca. 90°. Crystallographic data for 3f, 4, 5, and 8 are as follows. 3f: P21/n, a = 7.182(2), b = 12.161(5), c = 12.151(3) Å, β = 92.57(2)°, V = 1060.2(6) Å3, dcalcd = 2.479 g cm−3, Z = 4, R = 0.035, Rw = 0.043. 4: Pbca, a = 8.995(2), b = 29.936(2), c = 7.291(1) Å, V = 1963.3(5) Å3, dcalcd = 2.030 g cm−3, Z = 8, R = 0.024, Rw = 0.021. 5: Pbca, a = 9.290(1), b = 30.207(2), c = 7.193(2) Å, V = 2018.5(3) Å3, dcalcd = 2.284 g cm−3, Z = 8, R = 0.029, Rw = 0.020. 8: P212121, a = 11.844(2), b = 14.014(2), c = 8.650(1) Å, V = 1435.8(3) Å3, dcalcd = 1.558 g cm−3, Z = 4, R = 0.044, Rw = 0.047.
