Crystal structure of bis­[(5-oxo­oxolan-3-yl)triphen­ylphosphanium] hexa­iodido­tellurate(IV)

The asymmetric unit of the title salt, [C₂₂H₂₀O₂P]₂⁺[TeI₆]²⁻, consists of one triphenyl(5-oxooxolan-3-yl)phosphanium cation and one half of a hexa­iodido­tellurate(IV) dianion. The Te atom is located at an inversion centre and is octa­hedrally coordinated by six I atoms. The Te—I bond lengths range from 2.9255 (9) to 2.9439 (10) Å. The I—Te—I angles between cis-iodide ligands are in the range 87.85 (3)–92.15 (3)°. In the crystal, the components are connected by C—H...I inter­actions. In the final refinement of the compound a void of 32 ų was observed.
