The polymeric tellurium cation ∞ 1[Te 7 2⊕] in Te 7 WOBr 5 is made up of almost planar Te 7 units, which are linked to form a folded band (see Figure). Related structural motifs were hitherto only known in the case of tellurium poly anions . Te 7 WOBr 5 can be obtained by oxidation of tellurium with a WOBr 4 /WBr 5 mixture.
