Abstract
A tellurorosamine dye [Te(II)] undergoes aerobic photooxidation. Although Te(IV) species have been used in a number of oxidations, key Te(IV)-oxo and Te(IV)-bis(hydroxy) intermediates are challenging to study. Under aerobic irradiation with visible light, Te(II) (λmax = 600 nm) transforms into a Te(IV) species (λmax = 669 nm). The resultant Te(IV) species is not stable in the dark or at -20 °C, decomposing back to Te(II) and other byproducts over many hours. To eliminate the structural ambiguity of the Te(IV) photoproduct, we used spectroelectrochemistry, wherein the bis(hydroxy) Te(IV)-(OH)2 was electrochemically generated under anaerobic conditions. The absorption of Te(IV)-(OH)2 matches that of the Te(IV) photoproduct. Because isosbestic points are maintained both photochemically and electrochemically, the oxo core formed photochemically must rapidly equilibrate with Te(IV)-(OH)2. Calculations on the bis(hydroxy) versus oxo species further corroborate that the equilibration is rapid and the spectra of the two species are similar. To further explore Te(IV) cores, two novel compounds, Te(IV)-Cl2 and Te(IV)-Br2, were synthesized. Characterization of Te(IV)-X2 was simplified because these cores have no analogue to the Te(IV)-(O)/Te(IV)-(OH)2 equilibrium. This work provides insights into the photophysical and electrochemical behavior of Te analogues of chalcogenoxanthylium dyes, which are relevant for a broad range of photochemical applications.

Abstract
The separation of tellurium from cadmium telluride is examined using a unique combination of mild, anhydrous chlorination and complexation of the subsequent tellurium tetrachloride with 3,5-di-tert-butylcatecholate ligands (dtbc). The resulting tellurium complex, Te(dtbc)2 , is isolated in moderate yield and features a 103 to 104 reduction in cadmium content, as provided by XRF and ICP-MS analysis. Similar results were obtained from zinc telluride. A significant separation between Te, Se, and S was observed after treating a complex mixture of metal chalcogenides with this protocol. These three tunable steps can be applied for future applications of CdTe photovoltaic waste.

Abstract
Sterically hindered tellurium catecholate Te(Cat36)2 (Cat36 = 3,6-di-tert-butyl-catecholate) was synthesized with the reaction of amorphous Te with 3,6-di-tert-butyl-o-benzoquinone. Adducts of Te(Cat36)2 with various O- and N-donors were isolated and characterized by means of single-crystal X-ray diffraction along with IR, UV-vis, and NMR (1H, 13C, and 125Te) spectroscopies. In the crystal structure of the adduct with 2,2'-bipyridine (bipy), the unprecedented μ-κ2N,N':κ2N,N'-bridging coordination mode of bipy was observed. Various intermolecular interactions Te...O, Te...N, and Te...C in adducts were analyzed using density functional theory calculations and quantum theory of atoms in molecules analysis. The estimated strength for appropriate short contacts varies from 0.9 to 5.3 kcal/mol, and they are attractive and purely non-covalent.

Abstract
A new series of triphenylantimony(V) 3-alkylthio/arylthio-substituted 4,6-di-tert-butylcatecholates of the type (3-RS-4,6-DBCat)SbPh3, where R = n-butyl (1), n-hexyl (2), n-octyl (3), cyclopentyl (4), cyclohexyl (5), benzyl (6), phenyl (7), and naphthyl-2 (8), were synthesized from the corresponding catechol thioethers and Ph3SbBr2 in the presence of a base. The crystal structures of 1, 2, 3, and 5 were determined by single-crystal X-ray analysis. The coordination polyhedron of 1-3 is better described as a tetragonal pyramid with a different degree of distortion, while that for 5- was a distorted trigonal bipyramid (τ = 0.014, 0.177, 0.26, 0.56, respectively). Complexes demonstrated different crystal packing of molecules. The electrochemical oxidation of the complexes involved the catecholate group as well as the thioether linker. The introduction of a thioether fragment into the aromatic ring of catechol ligand led to a shift in the potential of the "catechol/o-semiquinone" redox transition to the anodic region, which indicated the electron-withdrawing nature of the RS group. The radical scavenging activity of the complexes was determined in the reaction with DPPH radical.
