Dimethyl telluride is an

CH₃)₂Te

, also known by the abbreviation DMTe.

This was the first material used to grow

metalorganic vapour phase epitaxy.^[2]^[3]

Dimethyl telluride as a product of microbial metabolism was first discovered in 1939.[4] It is produced by some fungi and bacteria (

P. notatum and the bacterium Pseudomonas fluorescens).^[5]

The toxicity of DMTe is unclear. It is produced by the body when

toxic.^[6]
