Abstract

Halogen bonds, attractive intermolecular interactions between perfluoroalkyl bromides and bromide ions, are present in cocrystals of (-)-sparteinium hydrobromide (1) and (S)-1,2-dibromohexafluoropropane (2; shown schematically), and result in enantiopure and infinite supramolecular helices. The perfluorocarbon-hydrocarbon self-assembly allows the resolution of racemic 2.
