Utilizing the N -heterocyclic chalcogenones hexahydro-1,3-bis(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)-2 H -1,3-diazepine-2-thione ( SDiazMesS ) and hexahydro-1,3-bis(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)-2 H -1,3-diazepine-2-selone ( SDiazMesSe ) as halogen-bond acceptors, a total of 24 new cocrystals were prepared. The solid-state structures of the parent molecules were also determined, along with those of their acetonitrile solvates. Through the reaction of the chalcogen atom with molecular diiodine, a variety of S—I—I and Se—I—I fragments were formed, spanning a wide range of I—I bond orders. With acetone as a reaction solvent, molecular diiodine causes the oxidative addition of acetone to the chalcogen atom, resulting in new C—S, C—Se and C—C covalent bonds under mild conditions. The common halogen-bond donors, iodopentafluorobenzene, 1,2-, 1,3- and 1,4-diiodotetrafluorobenzene, 1,3,5-trifluorotriiodobenzene and tetraiodoethylene resulted in halogen-bond-driven cocrystal formation. In most cases, the analogous SDiazMesS and SDiazMesSe cocrystals are isomorphic.

The reaction of thiourea and 1,3-dimethylthiourea towards organoiodines: oxidative bond formation and halogen bonding
By varying the halogen-bond-donor molecule, 11 new halogen-bonding cocrystals involving thiourea or 1,3-dimethylthiourea were obtained, namely, 1,3-dimethylthiourea–1,2-diiodo-3,4,5,6-tetrafluorobenzene (1/1), C 6 F 4 I 2 ·C 3 H 8 N 2 S, 1 , thiourea–1,3-diiodo-2,4,5,6-tetrafluorobenzene (1/1), C 6 F 4 I 2 ·CH 4 N 2 S, 2 , 1,3-dimethylthiourea–1,3-diiodo-2,4,5,6-tetrafluorobenzene (1/1), C 6 F 4 I 2 ·C 3 H 8 N 2 S, 3 , 1,3-dimethylthiourea–1,3-diiodo-2,4,5,6-tetrafluorobenzene–methanol (1/1/1), C 6 F 4 I 2 ·C 3 H 8 N 2 S·CH 4 O, 4 , 1,3-dimethylthiourea–1,3-diiodo-2,4,5,6-tetrafluorobenzene–ethanol (1/1/1), C 6 F 4 I 2 ·C 3 H 8 N 2 S·C 2 H 6 O, 5 , 1,3-dimethylthiourea–1,4-diiodo-2,3,5,6-tetrafluorobenzene (1/1), C 6 F 4 I 2 ·C 3 H 8 N 2 S, 6 , 1,3-dimethylthiourea–1,3,5-trifluoro-2,4,6-triiodobenzene (1/1), C 6 F 3 I 3 ·C 3 H 8 N 2 S, 7 , 1,3-dimethylthiourea–1,1,2,2-tetraiodoethene (1/1), C 6 H 16 N 4 S 2 ·C 2 I 4 , 8 , [(dimethylamino)methylidene](1,2,2-triiodoethenyl)sulfonium iodide–1,1,2,2-tetraiodoethene–acetone (1/1/1), C 5 H 8 I 3 N 2 S + ·I − ·C 3 H 6 O·C 2 I 4 , 9 , 2-amino-4-methyl-1,3-thiazol-3-ium iodide–1,1,2,2-tetraiodoethene (2/3), 2C 4 H 7 N 2 S + ·2I − ·3C 2 I 4 , 10 , and 4,4-dimethyl-4 H -1,3,5-thiadiazine-3,5-diium diiodide–1,1,2,2-tetraiodoethene (2/3), 2C 5 H 12 N 4 S 2+ ·4I − ·3C 2 I 4 , 11 . When utilizing the common halogen-bond-donor molecules 1,2-, 1,3-, and 1,4-diiodotetrafluorobenzene, as well as 1,3,5-trifluoro-2,4,6-triiodobenzene, bifurcated I...S...I interactions were observed, resulting in the formation of isolated rings, chains, and sheets. Tetraiodoethylene (TIE) provided I...S...I cocrystals as well, but further yielded a sulfonium-containing product through the reaction of the S atom with TIE. This particular sulfonium motif is the first of its kind to be structurally characterized, and is stabilized in the solid state through a three-dimensional I...I halogen-bonding network. Thiourea reacted with acetone in the presence of TIE to provide two novel heterocyclic products, again stabilized in the solid state through I...I halogen bonding.

The potential of pyrimidines to serve as ditopic halogen-bond acceptors is explored. The halogen-bonded cocrystals formed from solutions of either 5,5′-bipyrimidine (C 8 H 6 N 4 ) or 1,2-bis(pyrimidin-5-yl)ethyne (C 10 H 6 N 4 ) and 2 molar equivalents of 1,3-diiodotetrafluorobenzene (C 6 F 4 I 2 ) have a 1:1 composition. Each pyrimidine moiety acts as a single halogen-bond acceptor and the bipyrimidines act as ditopic halogen-bond acceptors. In contrast, the activated pyrimidines 2- and 5-{[4-(dimethylamino)phenyl]ethynyl}pyrimidine (C 14 H 13 N 3 ) are ditopic halogen-bond acceptors, and 1:1 halogen-bonded cocrystals are formed from 1:1 mixtures of each of the activated pyrimidines and either 1,2- or 1,3-diiodotetrafluorobenzene. A 1:1 cocrystal was also formed between 2-{[4-(dimethylamino)phenyl]ethynyl}pyrimidine and 1,4-diiodotetrafluorobenzene, while a 2:1 cocrystal was formed between 5-{[4-(dimethylamino)phenyl]ethynyl}pyrimidine and 1,4-diiodotetrafluorobenzene.more » « less

Through variations in reaction solvent and stoichiometry, a series of S-diiodine adducts of 1,3- and 1,4-dithiane were isolated by direct reaction of the dithianes with molecular diiodine in solution. In the case of 1,3-dithiane, variations in reaction solvent yielded both the equatorial and the axial isomers of S-diiodo-1,3-dithiane, and their solution thermodynamics were further studied via DFT. Additionally, S,S’-bis(diiodo)-1,3-dithiane was also isolated. The 1:1 cocrystal, (1,4-dithiane)·(I2) was further isolated, as well as a new polymorph of S,S’-bis(diiodo)-1,4-dithiane. Each structure showed significant S···I halogen and chalcogen bonding interactions. Further, the product of the diiodine-promoted oxidative addition of acetone to 1,4-dithiane, as well as two new cocrystals of 1,4-dithiane-1,4-dioxide involving hydronium, bromide, and tribromide ions, was isolated.more » « less

The reaction of 1,3,5-( i Pr 2 PO) 3 C 6 H 3 with Co 2 (CO) 8 leads to the isolation of a POCOP-type mononuclear pincer complex {κ P ,κ C ,κ P -2,4,6-( i Pr 2 PO) 3 C 6 H 2 }Co(CO) 2 (1) or a tetranuclear species {κ P -{κ P ,κ C ,κ P -2,4,6-( i Pr 2 PO) 3 C 6 H 2 }Co(CO) 2 } 2 Co 2 (CO) 6 (2), depending on the ligand to cobalt ratio employed. The latter compound can be an impurity during the synthesis of {2,6-( i Pr 2 PO) 2 -4-Me 2 N-C 6 H 2 }Co(CO) 2 , when the ligand precursor 5-(dimethylamino)resorcinol is contaminated with phloroglucinol due to incomplete monoamination. Similarly, the reaction of 1,3,5-( i Pr 2 PO) 3 C 6 H 3 with NiCl 2 in the presence of 4-dimethylaminopyridine provides {κ P ,κ C ,κ P -2,4,6-( i Pr 2 PO) 3 C 6 H 2 }NiCl (3) bearing an appended phosphinite group. Structures 1–3 have been studied by X-ray crystallography.more » « less

1,3-Diiodo-5-nitrobenzene, C6H3I2NO2, and 1,3-dibromo-5-nitrobenzene, C6H3Br2NO2, crystallize in the centrosymmetric space group
P 21/m , and are isostructural with 1,3-dichloro-5-nitrobenzene, C6H3Cl2NO2, that has been redetermined at 100 K for consistency. While the three-dimensional packing in all three structures is similar, the size of the halogen atom affects the nonbonded close contacts observed between molecules. Thus, the structure of 1,3-diiodo-5-nitrobenzene features a close Type 1 I...I contact, the structure of 1,3-dibromo-5-nitrobenzene features a self-complementary nitro-O...Br close contact, while the structure of 1,3-dichloro-5-nitrobenzene also has a self-complementary nitro-O...Cl interaction, as well as a bifurcated C—H...O(nitro) close contact. Notably, the major energetically attractive intermolecular interaction between adjacent molecules in each of the three structures corresponds to a π-stacked interaction. The self-complementary halogen...O(nitro) and C—H...O(nitro) interactions correspond to significant cohesive attraction between molecules in each structure, while the Type 1 halogen–halogen contact is weakly cohesive.
