Cobaloximes as Building Blocks in Halogen-Bonded Cocrystals.

ABSTRACT: In this work, we explore the halogen-bonded cocrystallization potential of cobaloxime complexes in the synthesis of cocrystals with perhalogenated benzenes. We demonstrate a strategy for synthesizing halogen-bonded metal-organic cocrystals by utilizing cobaloximes whose pendant bromide group and oxime oxygen enable halogen bonding. By combining three well-known halogen bond donor molecules differing in binding geometry and composition with three cobaloxime units, we obtained a total of four previously unreported cocrystals. Single crystal X-ray diffraction experiments showed that the majority of obtained cocrystals exhibited the formation of the targeted I···O and I···Br motives. These results illustrate the potential of cobaloximes as halogen bond acceptors and indicate that this type of halogen bond acceptors may offer a novel route to metal-organic halogen-bonded cocrystals.

Uracil Derivatives for Halogen-Bonded Cocrystals.

Project description:Among non-covalent interactions, halogen bonding is emerging as a new powerful tool for supramolecular self-assembly. Here, along with a green and effective method, we report three new halogen-bonded cocrystals containing uracil derivatives and 1,2,4,5-tetrafluoro-3,6-diiodobenzene as X-bond donor coformer. These multicomponent solids were prepared both by solvent-drop grinding and solution methods and further characterized by powder and single-crystal X-ray diffraction, Fourier-transformed infrared spectroscopy, and thermal methods (TGA-DSC). In order to study the relative importance of hydrogen versus halogen bonds in the crystal packing, computational methods were applied.

Supramolecular Sandwiches: Halogen-Bonded Coformers Direct [2+2] Photoreactivity in Two-Component Cocrystals.

Project description:The halogen-bond (X-bond) donors 1,3- and 1,4-diiodotetrafluorobenzene (1,3-di-I-tFb and 1,4-di-I-tFb, respectively) form cocrystals with trans-1,2-bis(2-pyridyl)ethylene (2,2'-bpe) assembled by N···I X-bonds. In each cocrystal, 2(1,3-di-I-tFb)·2(2,2'-bpe) and (1,4-di-I-tFb)·(2,2'-bpe), the donor molecules support the C=C bonds of 2,2'-bpe to undergo an intermolecular [2+2] photodimerization. UV irradiation of each cocrystal resulted in stereospecific and quantitative conversion of 2,2'-bpe to rctt-tetrakis(2-pyridyl)cyclobutane (2,2'-tpcb). In each case, the reactivity occurs via face-to-face ?-stacked columns wherein nearest-neighbor pairs of 2,2'-bpe molecules lie sandwiched between X-bond donor molecules. Nearest-neighbor C=C bonds are stacked criss-crossed in both cocrystals. The reactivity was ascribed to the olefins undergoing pedal-like motion in the solid state. The stereochemistry of 2,2'-tpcb is confirmed in cocrystals 2(1,3-di-I-tFb)·(2,2'-tpcb) and (1,4-di-I-tFb)·(2,2'-tpcb).

Fluorinated azobenzenes as supramolecular halogen-bonding building blocks.

Project description:ortho-Fluoroazobenzenes are a remarkable example of bistable photoswitches, addressable by visible light. Symmetrical, highly fluorinated azobenzenes bearing an iodine substituent in para-position were shown to be suitable supramolecular building blocks both in solution and in the solid state in combination with neutral halogen bonding acceptors, such as lutidines. Therefore, we investigate the photochemistry of a series of azobenzene photoswitches. Upon introduction of iodoethynyl groups, the halogen bonding donor properties are significantly strengthened in solution. However, the bathochromic shift of the ???* band leads to a partial overlap with the n??* band, making it slightly more difficult to address. The introduction of iodine substituents is furthermore accompanied with a diminishing thermal half-life. A series of three azobenzenes with different halogen bonding donor properties are discussed in relation to their changing photophysical properties, rationalized by DFT calculations.

Practical Synthesis and Application of Halogen-Doped Pyrrole Building Blocks.

Project description:A practical access to four new halogen-substituted pyrrole building blocks was realized in two to five synthetic steps from commercially available starting materials. The target compounds were prepared on a 50 mg to 1 g scale, and their conversion to nanomolar inhibitors of bacterial DNA gyrase B was demonstrated for three of the prepared building blocks to showcase the usefulness of such chemical motifs in medicinal chemistry.

Building blocks for recognition-encoded oligoesters that form H-bonded duplexes.

Project description:Competition from intramolecular folding is a major challenge in the design of synthetic oligomers that form intermolecular duplexes in a sequence-selective manner. One strategy is to use very rigid backbones that prevent folding, but this design can prejudice duplex formation if the geometry is not exactly right. The alternative approach found in nucleic acids is to use bases (or recognition units) that have different dimensions. A long-short base-pairing scheme makes folding geometrically difficult and is compatible with the flexible backbones that are required to guarantee duplex formation. A monomer building block equipped with a long hydrogen bond donor (phenol, D) recognition unit and a monomer building block equipped with a short hydrogen bond acceptor (phosphine oxide, A) recognition unit were prepared with differentially protected alcohol and carboxylic acid groups. These compounds were used to synthesise the homo and hetero-sequence 2-mers AA, DD and AD. 19F and 31P NMR experiments were used to characterize the assembly properties of these compounds in toluene solution. AA and DD form a stable doubly-hydrogen-bonded duplex with an effective molarity of 20 mM for formation of the second intramolecular hydrogen bond. AD forms a duplex of similar stability. There is no evidence of intramolecular folding in the monomeric state of this compound, which shows that the long-short base-pairing scheme is effective. The ester coupling chemistry used here is an attractive method for the synthesis of long oligomers, and the properties of the 2-mers indicate that this molecular architecture should give longer mixed sequence oligomers that show high fidelity sequence-selective duplex formation.

Halogen-Bonded Guanine Base Pairs, Quartets and Ribbons.

Project description:Halogen bonding is studied in different structures consisting of halogenated guanine DNA bases, including the Hoogsteen guanine-guanine base pair, two different types of guanine ribbons (R-I and R-II) consisting of two or three monomers, and guanine quartets. In the halogenated base pairs (except the Cl-base pair, which has a very non-planar structure with no halogen bonds) and R-I ribbons (except the At trimer), the potential N-X•••O interaction is sacrificed to optimise the N-X•••N halogen bond. In the At trimer, the astatines originally bonded to N1 in the halogen bond donating guanines have moved to the adjacent O6 atom, enabling O-At•••N, N-At•••O, and N-At•••At halogen bonds. The brominated and chlorinated R-II trimers contain two N-X•••N and two N-X•••O halogen bonds, whereas in the iodinated and astatinated trimers, one of the N-X•••N halogen bonds is lost. The corresponding R-II dimers keep the same halogen bond patterns. The G-quartets display a rich diversity of symmetries and halogen bond patterns, including N-X•••N, N-X•••O, N-X•••X, O-X•••X, and O-X•••O halogen bonds (the latter two facilitated by the transfer of halogens from N1 to O6). In general, halogenation decreases the stability of the structures. However, the stability increases with the increasing atomic number of the halogen, and the At-doped R-I trimer and the three most stable At-doped quartets are more stable than their hydrogenated counterparts. Significant deviations from linearity are found for some of the halogen bonds (with halogen bond angles around 150°).

Halogen-bonded cocrystallization with phosphorus, arsenic and antimony acceptors.

Project description:The formation of non-covalent directional interactions, such as hydrogen or halogen bonds, is a central concept of materials design, which hinges on using small compact atoms of the 2nd period, notably nitrogen and oxygen, as acceptors. Heavier atoms are much less prominent in that context, and mostly limited to sulfur. Here, we report the experimental observation and theoretical study of halogen bonds to phosphorus, arsenic and antimony in the solid state. Combining 1,3,5-trifluoro-2,4,6-triiodobenzene with triphenylphosphine, -arsine, and -stibine provides cocrystals based on I···P, I···As and I···Sb halogen bonds. The demonstration that increasingly metallic pnictogens form halogen bonds sufficiently strong to enable cocrystal formation is an advance in supramolecular chemistry which opens up opportunities in materials science, as shown by colossal thermal expansion of the cocrystal involving I···Sb halogen bonds.

Relativistic Effects on NMR Parameters of Halogen-Bonded Complexes.

Project description:Relativistic effects are found to be important for the estimation of NMR parameters in halogen-bonded complexes, mainly when they involve the heavier elements, iodine and astatine. A detailed study of 60 binary complexes formed between dihalogen molecules (XY with X, Y = F, Cl, Br, I and At) and four Lewis bases (NH3, H2O, PH3 and SH2) was carried out at the MP2/aug-cc-pVTZ/aug-cc-pVTZ-PP computational level to show the extent of these effects. The NMR parameters (shielding and nuclear quadrupolar coupling constants) were computed using the relativistic Hamiltonian ZORA and compared to the values obtained with a non-relativistic Hamiltonian. The results show a mixture of the importance of the relativistic corrections as both the size of the halogen atom and the proximity of this atom to the basic site of the Lewis base increase.

Hydrogen-Bonded and Halogen-Bonded: Orthogonal Interactions for the Chloride Anion of a Pyrazolium Salt.

Project description:In the hydrochloride of a pyrazolyl-substituted acetylacetone, the chloride anion is hydrogen-bonded to the protonated pyrazolyl moiety. Equimolar co-crystallization with tetrafluorodiiodobenzene (TFDIB) leads to a supramolecular aggregate in which TFDIB is situated on a crystallographic center of inversion. The iodine atom in the asymmetric unit acts as halogen bond donor, and the chloride acceptor approaches the σ-hole of this TFDIB iodine subtending an almost linear halogen bond, with Cl···I = 3.1653(11) Å and Cl···I-C = 179.32(6)°. This contact is roughly orthogonal to the N-H···Cl hydrogen bond. An analysis of the electron density according to Bader's Quantum Theory of Atoms in Molecules confirms bond critical points (bcps) for both short contacts, with ρbcp = 0.129 for the halogen and 0.321eÅ-3 for the hydrogen bond. Our halogen-bonded adduct represents the prototype for a future class of co-crystals with tunable electron density distribution about the σ-hole contact.
