Borotellurites

Borotellurites are chemical mixed anion compounds that contain any kind of borate and tellurite ions bound together via oxygen. They are distinct from borotellurates in which tellurium is in +6 oxidation state. There are also analogous boroselenites, with selenium instead of tellurium, and borosulfates containing sulfur. Borotellurites are colourless.
