The importance of exploratory synthesis in advancing inorganic chemistry is exemplified by the interesting results that have been obtained in polychalcogenide chemistry. Thus, for example, Te 8 rings and planar [Te 6 ] n 3 n −layers have been found in the solid‐state structure of Cs 3 Te 22 [ Angew. Chem. 1995 , 107 , 450]. The counterions, which appear to function as templates, strongly influence the formation and structure of the products. Is this a route to polychalcogenides with defined structural features and material properties?
