Talk:Ditellurium decafluoride

Does Te2F10 even exist?
Apparently, ditellurium decafluoride has not yet been prepared. What was originally thought to be Te2F10 is now known to be O(TeF5)2.

See, for example, this website,, p. 767, E. Engelbrecht and F. Sladky, ''Adv. Inorg. Chem. Radiochem. 24, 189-223 (1981) and P. M. Watkins, J. Chem. Educ.'', 51, 520-1 (1974).

 * I have changed the article to reflect the facts--Wiki should not perpetuate urban chemical myths! We need an article on Te2F10O.--Axiosaurus (talk) 11:20, 4 February 2008 (UTC)
