Addition of tellurium atoms to double and triple bonds

9 ADDITION OF TELLURIUM ATOMS TO DOUBLE AND TRIPLE BONDS 

There are very few data on tellurium atom additions, and all are from a single laboratory [119, 126]. The rate coefficients are reported in Table 34, and are singular largely in the negative activation energy measured for 

An abbreviated relative reactivity table (Table 35) is given for the group VIA elements. The lack of fit for the selenium atoms is obvious, if the apparent trends are correct for the other elements. Yet, the care with which the selenium additions were studied certainly suggests that the rate coefficients are reasonably accurate. More research is desirable.
