Tellurite (ion)

Tellurite (ion)

The tellurite ion is TeO32−.

A tellurite (compound) is a compound that contains this ion.

In slightly acid conditions, we have hydrogen tellurite ion, HTeO3; with more acidic conditions we have tellurous acid, H2TeO3.

Most tellurite compounds can be formed by heating the relevant oxide with tellurium dioxide, e.g., Na2O + TeO2 -> Na2TeO3.

Potassium tellurite (K2TeO3)is used together with agar as part of a selective medium for growth of some bacteria (Clauberg medium).

See for a list.
