✦ Synopsis
Pentafluorophenyl phenyl telluride (1) and 3,5-dichloro-2,4,6-trifluorophenyl phenyl telluride (2) react with pentafluorophenyllithium or 3,5-dichloro-2,4,6trifluorophenyllithium in THF at low temperatures to form the corresponding tellurium ate complexes (A) and (B) as sole intermediates in the ligand exchange on the hypewalent tellurium atom. The corresponding selenides (3) and (4) also react with identical aryllithium reagents in THF to form the discrete intermediates, selenium ate complexes (C) and (D), in the exchange reactions. In these ligand exchange reactions of tellurides and selenides, ebctron-withdrawing ligands occupy the apical positions and the exchange takes place between these a ical-oriented groups. The low-temperature ' H , 13C, Se, and "'Te N M R spectroscopic techniques are effective methods for detection of unstable tellurium and selenium ate complexes.
