Since its discovery in 1782, research findings have unfolded the chemistryoftelluriumcompounds.Theincreaseinthenumberofinorganictellurium compounds and organic/organometallic tellurium compounds by 40% to 70%, en- visagestheirimportance.Theemergingsignificanceoftelluriumcompoundsisevident fromtheirdiverseandpotentialapplicationsinvariousfieldsofchemistry.Thisisdue to its unique property of three-centered bonding, hyper valence and secondary bonding interactions. Basic knowledge of chemistry is very essential for the novel applicationsoforganotelluriumcompoundsindiversefields. The main purpose of this book is to provide an authentic and comprehensive account of current materialistic applications of organotellurium compounds. This purpose is fulfilled by assembling a knowledgeable team of contributing authors havingconsiderableinterestandskillinthisfield.Thecombinedeffortsoftheauthors andtheirexpertiseintherelevantfieldhaveexploredandproducedalmostcomplete coverage of unique properties and modem applications of organotellurium com- pounds.Alltwelvechaptersofthisbookaredesignedinawaytoimpartsyntheticand practicalknowledgeoftelluriumandorganotelluriumcompounds.
