Halogen Bonding Based “Catch and Release”: Reversible Solid State Entrapment of Elemental Iodine with Mono-Alkylated DABCO Salts
2012
The halogen bonding (XB) between elemental iodine (I2) and neutral 1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane (DABCO) and its monoalkylated PF6– salts was studied by X-ray crystallographic, thermoanalytical, and computational methods. DABCO was found to form both 1:1 and 1:2 complexes with I2 showing an exceptionally strong halogen bond (ΔEcp = −73.0 kJ/mol) with extremely short N···I distance (2.37 A) in the 1:1 complex (1a). In the more favored 1:2 complex (1b), the XB interaction was found to be slightly weaker [ΔEcp = −64.4 kJ/mol and d(N···I) = 2.42 A] as compared to 1a. The monoalkylated DABCO salts (2PF6–7PF6) form corresponding 1:1 XB complexes with I2 {[2···I2]PF6–([7···I2]PF6} similarly to the…
Alternative Motifs for Halogen Bonding
2013
The halogen-bonding interaction is one of the rising stars in supramolecular chemistry. Although other weak interactions and their influence on the structure and chemistry of various molecules, complexes and materials have been investigated thoroughly, the field of halogen bonding is still quite unexplored and its impact on chemistry in general is yet to be fully revealed. In principle, every Y–X bond (Y = electron-withdrawing atom or moiety, X = halogen atom) can act as a halogen-bond donor when the halogen is polarized enough by Y. Perfluorohalocarbons are iconic halogen-bond donor molecules in which Y is a perfluorinated aryl or alkyl moiety and X is either iodine or bromine. In this art…
Halogen bonded supramolecular complexes and networks
2008
In spite of some controversy of the true nature of the interaction between polarized halogen atoms and neutral or charged Lewis bases, termed “halogen bonding”, as a primary interaction, it is a very useful new tool/way to construct supramolecular complexes and networks. This is especially true in solid state supramolecular chemistry where utilization of weak intermolecular interactions such as halogen bonding opens up new insights to materials design and supramolecular synthesis.
Photoresponsive ionic liquid crystals assembled: Via halogen bond: En route towards light-controllable ion transporters
2017
We demonstrate that halogen bonding (XB) can offer a novel approach for the construction of photoresponsive ionic liquid crystals. In particular, we assembled two new supramolecular complexes based on 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium iodides and azobenzene derivatives containing an iodotetrafluoro-benzene ring as XB donor, where the iodide anion acted as an XB acceptor. DSC and X-ray diffraction analyses revealed that the preferred stoichiometry between the XB donors and acceptors is 2 : 1, and that the iodide anions act as bidentate XB-acceptors, binding two azobenzene derivatives. Due to the high directionality of the XB, calamitic superanions are obtained, while the segregation occurring betw…
Solid state halogen bonded networks vs. dynamic assemblies in solution: explaining N⋯X interactions of multivalent building blocks
2015
Tetrapyridine functionalized resorcinarene macrocycles were used as multivalent building blocks for the construction of halogen bonded networks with aryl halide linkers. In the solid state, resorcinarene macrocycles and aryl halide linker molecules assembled into interpenetrated, multidimensional halogen bonded networks with porous structure caused by the 3D block scaffold of the resorcinarenes. 19F NMR spectroscopy proved halogen bond formation also in solution, as either upfield or downfield shifts were observed depending on the bivalent or monovalent halogen bond binding mode. The binding mode in solution was explained by density functional theory computations. peerReviewed

2021
The melting points of tribromobenzene isomers are correlated with the number, nature and distribution of intermolecular interactions in their structures.
Syntheses, structures and magnetic properties of cyano-bridged one-dimensional Ln3+–Fe3+ (Ln = La, Dy, Ho and Yb) coordination polymers
2019
Four new heterometallic one-dimensional coordination polymers with formulae trans-[La(o-phen)3(H2O)(μ-CN)2Fe(CN)4]·7H2O (1) and trans-[Ln(H2O)2(phen)2(μ-CN)2Fe(CN)4]·nH2O [Ln/n = Dy/8 (2), Ho/7 (3) and Yb/7 (4), (o-phen = 1,10-phenanthroline)] have been synthesized by reacting Ln(NO3)3·xH2O with K3[Fe(CN)6] and 1,10-phenanthroline. The structures of 1–4 have been established by single crystal X-ray diffraction. Polymer 1 presents a chain structure with three o-phen ligands coordinated to La3+ and [Fe(CN)6]3− complexes connecting them through two trans CN− ligands to form a linear chain. Compounds 2–4 are solvates and contain Ln3+ ions coordinated to two o-phen ligands and also bridged by [F…
2-(Mesitylmethylsulfanyl)pyridineN-oxide–18-crown-6 (2/1)
2008
In the title compound, 2C(15)H(17)NOS·C(12)H(24)O(6), the asymmetric unit consists of one N-oxide derivative and one-half of the 18-crown-6 ether, which lies on an inversion centre. In the crown ether, the O-C-C-O torsion angles indicate a gauche conformation of the ethyl-eneoxy units, while the C-O-C-C torsion angles indicate planarity of these segments. In the N-oxide unit, the dihedral angle between the pyridine and benzene rings is 85.88 (12)°. The crystal packing is stabilized by weak C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds and C-H⋯π inter-actions.
17O NMR study of isomeric monochloro- and monohydroxy-benzaldehydes and chlorinated salicylaldehydes
1991
The 17O NMR chemical shifts of isomeric monochloro- and monohydroxy-benzaldehydes and chlorinated salicylaldehydes were measured at 40°C for 0.25 M CDCI3 solutions. The 17O NMR chemical shift of the carbonyl oxygen of the compounds studied varies from 506 to 573 ppm measured from external D2O. The observed variation is probably mainly due to the intramolecular hydrogen bonding between the adjacent carbonyl and hydroxyl groups. The 17O NMR chemical shift range of the hydroxyl oxygen is from 80 to 98 ppm.
The geometry of the silver 1,1′-dibenzyl-2,2′-biimidazole complexes
2013
Abstract The argentophilic interactions and interactions of weakly coordinated nitrate and water with silver metal were studied by investigating the reaction of 1,1′-dibenzyl-2,2′-biimidazole (Bn2bim) with silver nitrate. Three new silver complexes [Ag4(Bn2bim)4(NO3)2]·4(CH3CH2OH)·2(NO3)·0.5(H2O) (1), [Ag4(Bn2bim)4(H2O)4]·4(NO3) (2) and [Ag4(Bn2bim)4(NO3)4]·6(CH2Cl2)·2(H2O) (3) were synthesized and characterized. Complexes 1-3 have rare tetranuclear twisted closed cyclic structure with four bridging biimidazoles and variable nitrate/water ratio. The interactions between the nitrate ligand and Ag as well as water ligands and Ag are considered to be weak due to the ease of exchanging them. Th…
