We firstly establish a facile one-step ring-closure methodology to obtain a novel macrocyclic tellurocarbonate (MTe) series. The well-defined poly(telluride-carbonate)s (PTe) were developed by one-pot organocatalytic ring-opening polymerization (ROP) of MTe. This work furnishes a strategy for utilizing heterotellurium macrocarbonates as feedstocks in polymer synthesis of degradable tellurium-containing materials.
