Abstract

Edge‐sharing rhombic [Cu₂Te₂] units form the building blocks in the corrugated anionic [Cu₅Te₅] n2n− layers (see the sketch at the right) in mixed‐valent K₂Cu₅Te₅—a metallic conductor of the p type. K₂Cu₅Te₅ is formed on treatment of Cu with K₂Te_x (x ≈ 4) at 350°C in vacuum as black crystals and is stable to air and moisture. (Figure Presented.)
