Z-Vinylic tellurides, obtained with 100% stereoselectivity by the hydrotelluration of acetylenes, are easily transformed into Z-vinylic higher order cyanocuprates by reaction with preformed Me2-Cu(CN)Li2, W-Bu2Cu(CN)Lisub

Under the action of alkanetellurolate anion phenyl halides undergo aromatic substitution followed by dealkylation of the alkyl phenyl telluride thus formed.The generated benzenetellurolate anion can be either alkylated or oxidized to diphenyl ditelluride, or added to acetylene.Butyl methyl telluride and selenide are demethylated by methanechalcogenolate anions.
