Synthesis of phenoxatellurine derivatives
The reaction of dimedon enol acetate with tellurium tetrachloride gives derivatives of octahydrophenoxatellurine. The reaction of cyclohexanone enol acetate and methyl ethyl ketone with tellurium tetrachloride or aryltellurium trichloride gives the respective organotellurium trichloride and diorganotellurium dichloride.
