But the literature of telluro-ketones is scarce. Despite Telluroformaldehyde complexes were first synthesized in 1983.

However, nowadays there is a quest for tellurium containing compounds or tellurocarbonyl compounds.

Why Limited literature for Telluro-ketones?

Theoretical exploration has been scarce due to:

  • Lack of well-tested basis sets for Te atom
  • Limited computing resources
slide-13
SLIDE 13

13

Why Limited literature for Telluro-ketones?

The lack of experimental studies is often ascribed to:

  • The semipolar nature of the A=E bond

(A=C, Si and Ge; E=O, S, Se and Te)

  • High tendency for the A=E to open up

and undergo intermolecular reactions

Our Findings

The kinetic and thermodynamic stabilities of the telluro-ketones were always questioned by reviewers.

Back to literature… How others have stabilized some of the known heavy ketones? Has any stable telluro-ketone been synthesized and isolated so far?

Conclusions from literature… Heavy ketones and telluro-ketones synthesized and isolated so far are based on the kinetic stabilization of the A=E bond by the use of bulky rigid protecting groups.

slide-24

24

Does this means that the simple, unprotected telluro-ketones are unstable compared to those kinetically protected ones?

Conclusions

Since

state-of-the-art computations have been carried out, findings of this work can serve as a good reference and assist experimentalists to

 synthesize, characterize and further explore the properties of these novel

telluro-ketones
