Supramolecular Assembly of Metal Complexes by (Aryl)I⋯dz2[PtII] Halogen Bond
2020
The theoretical data for the half‐lantern complexes [Pt(C^N)(μ‐S^N)] 2 ( 1 – 3 ; С^N is cyclometalated 2‐Ph‐benzothiazole; S^N is 2‐SH‐pyridine 1 , 2‐SH‐benzoxazole 2 , 2‐SH‐tetrafluorobenzothiazole 3 ) indicate that the Pt···Pt orbital interaction leads to an increment of the nucleophilicity of the outer d z 2 ‐orbitals to provide assembly with electrophilic species. 1 – 3 were co‐crystallized with bifunctional halogen bond (XB) donors to give adducts ( 1 – 3 ) 2 ∙(1,4‐diiodotetrafluorobenzene) and infinite polymeric [ 1 ·1,1’‐diiodoperfluorodiphenyl] n . X‐ray crystallography revealed that the supramolecular assembly is achieved via (Aryl)I∙∙∙ d z 2 [Pt II ] XB between iodine σ‐holes and …
Multifacial Recognition in Binary and Ternary Cocrystals from 5-Halouracil and Aminoazine Derivatives
2018
A systematic analysis using single crystal X-ray diffraction was performed to explore the role exerted by potential intercomponent proton-transfer reactions in the supramolecular structures of A–B cocrystals formed by 5-haloderivatives of uracil (A), coupled with 2-aminoadenine simulants (aminoazines, B). Twelve new heterodimers were synthesized in different stoichiometries and cocrystallized by solvent cogrinding followed by solution crystallization. In the binary cocrystals, uracil or 1-methyluracil with halide modification at the 5 position (F, Cl, Br, I) was coupled with amino-aromatic N-heterocycles (melamine, 2,4,6-triaminopyrimidine, 2,6-diaminopyridine) as a multivalent site for pyr…
Crystal structure of the pyridine–diiodine (1/1) adduct
2015
In the title adduct, C5H5N·I2, the N—I distance [2.424 (8) Å] is remarkably shorter than the sum of the van der Waals radii. The line through the I atoms forms an angle of 78.39 (16)° with the normal to the pyridine ring.
Evidence of Weak Halogen Bonding: New Insights on Itraconazole and its Succinic Acid Cocrystal
2012
Exact knowledge of the crystal structure of drugs and lead compounds plays a significant role in the fields of crystal engineering, docking, computational modeling (drug–receptor interactions), and rational design of potent drugs in pharmaceutical chemistry. The succinic acid cocrystal of the systemic antifungal drug, itraconazole, reported by Remenar et al. (J. Am. Chem. Soc.2003, 125, 8456–8457) (CSD: IKEQEU), represents one of the classical examples displaying a molecular fitting mechanism in the solid state. In this work, we disclose the X-ray single-crystal structure of the cis-itraconazole–succinic acid (2:1) cocrystal and found that it differs slightly from the previously reported st…
Tunable Interaction Strength and Nature of the S···Br Halogen Bonds in [(Thione)Br2] Systems
2015
The strength and nature of the S···Br and Br···Br interactions were systematically tuned by altering the electron donor properties of the thione group. Three new halogen-bonded compounds, [(N-methylbenzothiazole-2-thione)Br2]·0.5CH2Cl2 (1), [(2(3H)-benzothiazolethione)Br2] (2), and [(2-benzimidazolethione)Br]·[Br3] (3), were synthesized and studied structurally by using X-ray crystallography and computationally by using charge density analysis based on QTAIM calculations. Analysis of the interaction strength indicated a formation of surprisingly strong S···Br halogen bonds in 1 (−104 kJ mol–1, and RBrS = 0.64) and 2 (−116 kJ mol–1, and RBrS = 0.63) with a substantial covalent contribution. …
