The formation and structural characterization of the first coordination complex of the tellurophosphorane [ t Bu(H)NP(μ‐N t Bu) 2 P(Te)N(H) t Bu] are presented. The silver(I) iodide complex {(I)Ag[ t Bu(H)NP(μ‐N t Bu) 2 P(Te)N(H) t Bu] 3 } ( 2 ) was isolated from the reaction of [Li(TMEDA)] 2 [ t BuN(Te)P(μ‐N t Bu) 2 P(Te)N t Bu)] ( 1 ) with AgI in toluene and characterized by X‐ray analysis and multinuclear NMR spectroscopy. Complex 2 is comprised of three tellurophosphorane ligands coordinated to AgI in a distorted tetrahedral arrangement [102.90(3)–114.51(5) o ]. The P=Te bond lengths of 2.3883(13)–2.4043(17) Å in 2 are slightly elongated compared to those in the free ligand.
