✦ Synopsis
Phentyltellurotrimethylsilane (1) was reduced by samarium diiodide in tetrahydrofuran (THF) to produce samarium phenyltellurolate. This new tellurolate anion reacted smoothly with alkyl and benzyl halides to give alkyl and benzyl-phenyl tellurides in good yields under mild and neutral conditions. The samarium tellurolate also reacted with acyl halides or anhydrides to give telluroesters, and the 1,4-addition of samarium tellurolate to ␣, b-unsaturated esters (nitriles) gave b-phenyltelluro esters (nitriles). ᭧ 1999
