Abstract
In the title structure, C(6)H(6)N(2)O·H(6)O(6)Te, the pyridine-3-carboxamide and telluric acid mol-ecules are inter-connected by conventional O-H⋯N, N-H⋯O and O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds of moderate strength as well as by π-π inter-actions between the pyridine rings. The strongest hydrogen bond in the structure is formed between a hydroxyl group of the H(6)TeO(6) mol-ecule and the N-pyrimidine N atom. The structure is unusual because of presence of the alternating sheets, which contain H(6)TeO(6) and pyridine-3-carboxamide mol-ecules, respectively. These sheets are aligned parallel to (001).
