The highest possible oxidation state of +6 is displayed by the tellurium center in the hexaaryltellurium compounds 1 a and 1 b . Both are extremely thermally stable and, unlike other organotellurium compounds, not light‐sensitive. X‐ray crystallographic analyses of 1 revealed rare examples of approximate T h molecular symmetry.
