A glimpse on biological activities of tellurium compounds [PDF]
Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2009 Tellurium is a rare element which has been regarded as a toxic, non-essential trace element and its biological role is not clearly established to date. Besides of that, the biological effects of elemental tellurium and some of its inorganic and organic ...

Antiviral Effect of 5′-Arylchalcogeno-3-aminothymidine Derivatives in SARS-CoV-2 Infection [PDF]
Molecules, 2023 The understanding that zidovudine (ZDV or azidothymidine, AZT) inhibits the RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) of SARS-CoV-2 and that chalcogen atoms can increase the bioactivity and reduce the toxicity of AZT has directed our search for the discovery ...

Transition-Metal-Free Synthesis of Unsymmetrical Diaryl Tellurides via SH2 Reaction of Aryl Radicals on Tellurium [PDF]
Molecules, 2022 Although diaryl tellurides are parent organotellurium compounds, their synthesis methods, especially for unsymmetrical ones, are limited. This may be due to the instability of diaryl tellurides and their synthesis intermediates under reaction conditions.
