Tellurium iodide is an inorganic compound with the formula TeI.

[2] TeI is a gray solid formed by the hydrothermal reaction of tellurium metal and iodine in hydroiodic acid.

When the same mixture is heated to 150 °C, one obtains the metastable monoclinic phase β-TeI.

[3] The compounds are related structurally to Te2I (see ditellurium bromide), but the additional iodide groups do not bridge to other Te centers.

[2] Although TeI2 has not been isolated in bulk, complexes of the type TeI2(thiourea)2 are well characterized.
