Biography
Buqa Temür (Cyrillic Mongolian : Бөхтөмөр, not to be confused with Tuka Timur, son of Djötchi, brother of Batu) was a khan of the Chagatai Khanate (1272?-1282). He was the son of Qadaqchi.
Sometime around 1272 Buqa Temür killed Negübei, who had risen in revolt against Kaidu.Perhaps as a reward for this, Kaidu appointed him as head of the Chagatai Khanate.Soon after, he was stricken by illness, and the rest of his reign was marked by a failure to impose his authority.He was helpless against the raids of the sons of Alghu and Baraq, as well as forces of the Ilkhanate.In 1282 he was replaced by Duwa.
