Novel synthesis of bis(4-methoxyphenyltelluro) methane and its complexation with Pd(II) and Pt(II): crystal structure of [Pd{(4-CH3OC6H4Te)2CH2}Cl2]− a chelate with short interdonor linkage

Hybrid Quinoline Telluroether Ligand Derived Copper and Silver Complexes: Synthesis, Structural and Electronic Properties

“…[3,4] Several research groups have reported the synthesis of monodentate, and multidentate hybrid telluroether ligands and studied their coordination behaviour with various transition metal ions such as; Ru, Rh, Ni, Pd, Pt, Cu and Ag. [5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22] However, the isolation of bimetallic complexes has not been explored well despite their interesting structural properties and scope of the study of the metal•••metal interactions.…”

“…The polytelluroethers have been relatively less studied as compared with their polythioether and polyselenoether analogues because of their poor stability and easy decomposition at room temperature in the oxygen environment due to weak C−Te bond and low oxidation potential of tellurium [3,4] . Several research groups have reported the synthesis of monodentate, and multidentate hybrid telluroether ligands and studied their coordination behaviour with various transition metal ions such as; Ru, Rh, Ni, Pd, Pt, Cu and Ag [5–22] . However, the isolation of bimetallic complexes has not been explored well despite their interesting structural properties and scope of the study of the metal⋅⋅⋅metal interactions.…”
