Cycloaddition reaction of tert-butyl isocyanate and a tellurium diimide dimer: extended helical structure of the ureato telluroxide {[OC(μ-NBut)2TeO]2(thf)} ∞
Abstract
The reaction of
ButNTe(μ-NBut)2TeNBut with
ButNCO in a 1∶4 molar ratio in thf produces
N,N′-bis(tert-butyl)ureato telluroxide dimers
[OC(μ-NBut)2TeO]2, which form an
extended helical network via weak C
O⋯Te
interactions.
