Mechanochemical Preparation of Dipyridyl-Naphthalenediimide Cocrystals: Relative Role of Halogen-Bond and π-π Interactions.

ABSTRACT: Naphthalenediimide derivates are a class of π-conjugated molecules largely investigated in the literature and used as building blocks for metal-organic frameworks or coformers for hydrogen-bond-based cocrystals. However, their tendency to establish halogen-bond interactions remains unexplored. By using a crystalline engineering approach, we report here four new cocrystals with N,N'-di(4-pyrydyl)-naphthalene-1,4,5,8-tetracarboxidiimide and diiodo-substituted coformers, easily obtained via a mechanochemical protocol. Cocrystals were characterized via NMR, electron ionization mass spectrometry, thermogravimetric analysis, powder X-ray diffraction, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Crystallographic structures were then finely examined and correlated with energy framework calculations to understand the relative contribution of halogen-bond and π-π interactions toward framework stabilization.

New Type of Halogen Bond: Multivalent Halogen Interacting with π- and σ-Electrons.

Project description:MP2/aug-cc-pVTZ calculations were performed for complexes of BrF₃ and BrF₅ acting as Lewis acids through the bromine centre, with species playing a role of Lewis base: dihydrogen, acetylene, ethylene, and benzene. The molecular hydrogen donates electrons by its σ-bond, while in remaining moieties-in complexes of hydrocarbons; such an electron transfer follows from π-electrons. The complexes are linked by a kind of the halogen bond that is analyzed for the first time in this study, i.e., it is the link between the multivalent halogen and π or σ-electrons. The nature of such a halogen bond is discussed, as well as various dependencies and correlations are presented. Different approaches are applied here, the Quantum Theory of Atoms in Molecules, Natural Bond Orbital method, the decomposition of the energy of interaction, the analysis of electrostatic potentials, etc.

Halogen and Hydrogen Bond Motifs in Ionic Cocrystals Derived from 3-Halopyridinium Halogenides and Perfluorinated Iodobenzenes.

Project description:Four halopyridinium salts, 3-chloro- and 3-bromopyridinium chlorides and bromides, have been successfully cocrystallized with two ditopic perfluorinated iodobenzenes, 1,4-diiodotetrafluorobenzene and 1,2-diiodotetrafluorobenzene. These halogen bond donor molecules were chosen because the different positionings of halogen bond donor atoms can lead to different supramolecular architectures. In this work, we present insight into the halogen bond acceptor potential of chloride and bromide ions, as well as the halogen bond donor potential of chlorine and bromine atoms substituted on the pyridinium ring when combined with the expectedly very strong hydrogen bonds between halopyridinium ions and free halogenide anions. A series of eight cocrystals were obtained in which three pairs of isostructural cocrystals were formed. Dominant interactions in the obtained cocrystals were charge-assisted hydrogen bonds between halopyridinium cations and halogenide ions as well as halogen bonds between halogen atoms on the pyridinium ring and halogenide ions.

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.

Relative substituent position on the strength of pi-pi stacking interactions.

Project description:It was observed that the relative position of the arene substituents have a profound influence on the strength of pi-pi stacking in the 9-benzyl substituted triptycene system. A new series of model compounds (3a-i) capable of revealing quantitatively pi-pi stacking interactions was studied. This series of compounds (3a-i) has an ortho substituted methyl group in one of the two interacting arenes and the syn/anti ratios were determined and compared to a series previously studied compounds (4a-i) that have a para methyl group on the corresponding arene. A greater than 50% increase in the strength of pi-pi stacking interactions was observed with the methyl group in the ortho position comparing to that in the para position. No difference in pi-pi stacking interactions was observed when the other aromatic ring was a pentafluorobenzoate group.

Cobaloximes as Building Blocks in Halogen-Bonded Cocrystals.

Project description: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.

The Halogen Bond.

Project description:The halogen bond occurs when there is evidence of a net attractive interaction between an electrophilic region associated with a halogen atom in a molecular entity and a nucleophilic region in another, or the same, molecular entity. In this fairly extensive review, after a brief history of the interaction, we will provide the reader with a snapshot of where the research on the halogen bond is now, and, perhaps, where it is going. The specific advantages brought up by a design based on the use of the halogen bond will be demonstrated in quite different fields spanning from material sciences to biomolecular recognition and drug design.

Halogen-Halogen Nonbonded Interactions.

Project description:Halogen-halogen nonbonded interactions were studied for methyl halides and phenyl halides using both B3LYP and MP2 along with 6-311+G* and aug-cc-pVTZ. With the methyl halides, the linear approach was found to lead to little stabilization, whereas the "90°" approach gave 1-2 kcal/mol. This modest stabilization was due to long-range electron correlation effects. The lowest-energy arrangement had the molecules side-by-side, with the major stabilization being derived from halogen-hydrogen interactions. The results for methyl bromide were quite similar. Chlorobenzene dimer with the 90° orientation gave a small stabilization energy, but the best arrangement had the two benzene rings oriented over each other. The meta orientation of the chlorines had a lower energy than ortho or para. The dimerization energy was larger than that for two benzene rings sitting directly above each other, suggesting that whereas Cl···Cl interaction is not very important, the effect of the halogen on the electron distribution does have an effect. This suggests that much of the crystallographic results for these compounds may not be due to halogen-halogen interactions but rather the interaction between the substituted benzene rings along with crystal forces.

Activation of a Metal-Halogen Bond by Halogen Bonding.

Project description:In recent years, the non-covalent interaction of halogen bonding (XB) has found increasing application in organocatalysis. However, reports of the activation of metal-ligand bonds by XB have so far been limited to a few reactions with elemental iodine or bromine. Herein, we present the activation of metal-halogen bonds by two classes of inert halogen bond donors and the use of the resulting activated complexes in homogenous gold catalysis. The only recently explored class of iodolium derivatives were shown to be effective activators in two test reactions and their activity could be modulated by blocking of the Lewis acidic sites. Bis(benzimidazolium)-based halogen bonding activators provided even more rapid conversion, while the non-iodinated reference compound showed little activity. The role of halogen bonding in the activation of metal-halogen bonds was further investigated by NMR experiments and DFT calculations, which support the mode of activation occurring via halogen bonding.

Nature of the Hydrogen Bond Enhanced Halogen Bond.

Project description:The factors responsible for the enhancement of the halogen bond by an adjacent hydrogen bond have been quantitatively explored by means of state-of-the-art computational methods. It is found that the strength of a halogen bond is enhanced by ca. 3 kcal/mol when the halogen donor simultaneously operates as a halogen bond donor and a hydrogen bond acceptor. This enhancement is the result of both stronger electrostatic and orbital interactions between the XB donor and the XB acceptor, which indicates a significant degree of covalency in these halogen bonds. In addition, the halogen bond strength can be easily tuned by modifying the electron density of the aryl group of the XB donor as well as the acidity of the hydrogen atoms responsible for the hydrogen bond.
