The synthesis of di-t-butyl ditelluride, t-Bu2Te2, an di-t-butyl telluride, t-Bu2Te, are reported together with that of di-(neo-hexyl) ditelluride.New syntheses of Me2Te2 and i-Pr2Te2 are presented.The high resolution 125Te NMR data and the Moessbauer data for these compounds are discussed.The use of tellurium-proton couplings in high resolution 125Te NMR spectra in assigning the resonances in mixed dialkyl ditellurides is also illustrated.
