Abstract

A number of novel halogen-bonded aromatic amine cocrystals with 1,4-diiodotetrafluorobenzene have been synthesized via both mechanochemical and solution syntheses, offering valuable insight into potential halogen bond acceptor species.

Highlights

  • A number of novel halogen-bonded aromatic amine cocrystals with 1,4-diiodotetrafluorobenzene have been synthesized via both mechanochemical and solution syntheses, offering valuable insight into potential halogen bond acceptor species

  • Halogen bonding relies on the presence of an anisotropically polarized halogen atom, usually bromine or iodine, and its interaction with an electron-rich region on another atom, the halogen bond acceptor.[1]

  • The selected amines substituted with halogen bond acceptor species are useful compounds from a crystal engineering standpoint, since can they participate in the formation of halogen bonds and of hydrogen bonds with the donor amino group

Summary

Introduction

A number of novel halogen-bonded aromatic amine cocrystals with 1,4-diiodotetrafluorobenzene have been synthesized via both mechanochemical and solution syntheses, offering valuable insight into potential halogen bond acceptor species. The selected amines substituted with halogen bond acceptor species (a nitro, a pyridine, a carbonyl, a nitrile or a methoxy group) are useful compounds from a crystal engineering standpoint, since can they participate in the formation of halogen bonds and of hydrogen bonds with the donor amino group.
