sodium telluride

Sodium telluride is used to make organic tellurium compounds.

Sodium telluride is the chemical compound with the formula NaTe.

For this reason, solutions of sodium telluride (NaTe) are rather basic.

Tellurium can also be refined by electrolytic reduction of sodium telluride.

It is made by adding a strong acid to a telluride, such as sodium telluride.

Sodium telluride is made by reacting tellurium and sodium in liquid ammonia.

Examples are sodium telluride and hydrogen telluride.

Commonly used tellurium based reagents are hydrogen telluride, NaHTe, sodium telluride, and PhTeLi.
