The structure of metatellurate and orthotellurate

In chemistry, tellurate is a compound containing an oxyanion of tellurium where tellurium has an oxidation number of +6. In the naming of inorganic compounds it is a suffix that indicates a polyatomic anion with a central tellurium atom.[1]

Tellurium oxyanions

Historically the name tellurate was only applied to oxyanions of tellurium with oxidation number +6, formally derived from telluric acid Page Module:Chem2/styles.css has no content.Te(OH)6, and the name tellurite referred to oxyanions of tellurium with oxidation number +4, formally derived from tellurous acid Page Module:Chem2/styles.css has no content.(HO)2TeO and these names are in common use. However tellurate and tellurite are often referred to as tellurate(VI) and tellurate(IV) respectively in line with IUPAC renaming recommendations.[1] The metatellurate ion is TeO2−
4
and the orthotellurate ion is TeO6−
6
. Other oxyanions include pentaoxotellurate, TeO4−
5
,[2] ditellurate, Te
2
O8−
10
[3] and polymeric anions with 6-coordinate tellurium such as (TeO4−
5
)n.[4]

Metatellurates

The metatellurate ion TeO2−
4
is analogous to the sulfate ion, SO2−
4
and the selenate ion, SeO2−
4
. Whereas many sulfates and selenates form isomorphous salts[5] the tetrahedral metatellurate ion is only found in a few compounds such as the tetraethylammonium salt Page Module:Chem2/styles.css has no content.(NEt4)2TeO4.[6] Many compounds with a stoichiometry that suggests the presence of a metatellurate ion actually contain polymeric anions containing 6-coordinate tellurium(VI), for example sodium tellurate, Page Module:Chem2/styles.css has no content.Na2TeO4 which contains octahedral tellurium centers sharing edges.[7]

TeO2−

TeO2−

+ Page Template:Fraction/styles.css has no content.12 O2      (E0 = −1.042 V)

The E0 or standard reduction potential value is significant as it gives an indication of the strength of the tellurate ion as an oxidizing agent.[8]

Orthotellurates

Compounds containing the octahedral TeO6−
6
anion are known, these include Page Module:Chem2/styles.css has no content.Ag6TeO6, Page Module:Chem2/styles.css has no content.Na6TeO6 and Page Module:Chem2/styles.css has no content.Hg3TeO6.[9] There are also hydroxyoxotellurates, containing protonated TeO6−
6
, such as Page Module:Chem2/styles.css has no content.(NH4)2TeO2(OH)4 (sometimes written as Page Module:Chem2/styles.css has no content.NH4TeO4·2H2O) which contains the octahedral TeO

(OH)2−
4
ion.[10]

TeO4−
5
ion

The compound Page Module:Chem2/styles.css has no content.Cs2K2TeO5 contains TeO4−
5
ions which are trigonal bipyramidal.[2] The compound Page Module:Chem2/styles.css has no content.Rb6Te2O9 contains both TeO4−
5
and TeO2−
4
anions.[11] Other compounds whose stoichiometry suggests the presence of TeO4−
5
may contain either the dimeric Te

O8−
10
made up of two edge-sharing {TeO6} as in Page Module:Chem2/styles.css has no content.Li4TeO5[3] and Page Module:Chem2/styles.css has no content.Ag4TeO5[12] or corner-sharing {TeO6} octahedra as in Page Module:Chem2/styles.css has no content.Hg2TeO5.[4]

Polymeric tellurate ions

The dimeric Te
2
O8−
10
made up of two edge sharing {TeO6} octahedra is found in the compound Page Module:Chem2/styles.css has no content.Li4TeO5.[3] A similar hydroxy-oxy anion, Page Module:Chem2/styles.css has no content.Te2O6(OH)4 is found in sodium potassium ditellurate(VI) hexahydrate, Page Module:Chem2/styles.css has no content.Na0.5K3.5Te2O6(OH)4·6H2O which contains pairs of edge sharing octahedra.[13] Polymeric chain anions consisting of corner-shared {TeO6} octahedra (Page Module:Chem2/styles.css has no content.TeO5)4n
n
are found, for example in Page Module:Chem2/styles.css has no content.Li4TeO5.[3]

Aqueous chemistry

In aqueous solution tellurate ions are 6 coordinate. In neutral conditions the pentahydrogen orthotellurate ion, H
5
TeO
6
, is the most common; in basic conditions, the tetrahydrogen orthotellurate ion, H
4
TeO2−
6
, and in acid conditions, orthotelluric acid, Page Module:Chem2/styles.css has no content.Te(OH)6 or Page Module:Chem2/styles.css has no content.H6TeO6 is formed.[8]

Structural comparisons with oxyanions of sulfur and selenium

Sulfur(VI) oxyanions have a coordination number of 4 and in addition to the tetrahedral sulfate ion, SO2−
4
, the pyrosulfate, S
2
O2−
7
, trisulfate, S
3
O2−
10
and pentasulfate S
5
O2−
16
ions all contain 4-coordinate sulfur and are built from corner-shared Page Module:Chem2/styles.css has no content.{SO4} tetrahedra.[14] Selenate compounds include many examples of four coordinate selenium, principally the tetrahedral SeO2−
4
ion and the pyroselenate ion, Se
2
O2−
7
which has a similar structure to the pyrosulfate ion.[15] Unlike sulfur there are examples of a 5-coordinate selenium oxyanion, SeO4−
5
and one example of SeO6−
6
.[16][17][18]

NMR spectroscopy

Tellurium has two NMR active nuclei, 123Te and 125Te. 123Te has an abundance of 0.9% and a nuclear spin (I) of Page Template:Sfrac/styles.css has no content.1/2. 125Te has an abundance of 7% and an equivalent nuclear spin.[19] 125Te is more commonly performed because it has a higher sensitivity.[20] The metatellurate anion has a chemical shift around 610 ppm when analyzed using 125Te NMR at 25 °C at a frequency of 94.735 MHz and referenced externally against aqueous 1.0 M telluric acid.[6]

The tellurate suffix in the naming of inorganic compounds

Following the IUPAC Red Book(2005)[1] some examples are:

  • metatellurate ion, or tetraoxotellurate(VI) TeO2−
    4
    is tetraoxidotellurate(2−)
  • orthotellurate ion, or hexaoxotellurate(VI) TeO6−
    6
    is hexaoxidotellurate(6−)
  • octafluorotellurate(VI) ion TeF2−
    8
    is octafluoridotellurate(2−).
