Two bistable halogen and hydrogen bonding-naphthalene diimide [2]rotaxanes have been prepared and the system incorporating a halogen bond donor anion recognition site is demonstrated to exhibit superior anion induced translational motion of the macrocyclic wheel component relative to the hydrogen bonding analogue.

A computational study of the iodide discrimination by different neutral and cationic iodotriazole halogen bonding hosts was carried out by means of Density Functional Theory. The importance of the size of the scaffold was highlighted and its impact observed in the binding energies and intermolecular X⋯I distances. Larger scaffolds were found to reduce the electronic repulsion and increase the overlap between the halide electron lone pair and the corresponding I-C antibonding orbital, increasing the halogen bonding interactions. Additionally, the planarity plays an important role within the interaction, and can be tuned using hydroxyl to perform intramolecular hydrogen bonds (IMHB) between the scaffold and the halogen atoms. Structures with IMHB exhibit stronger halogen bond interactions, as evidenced by the shorter intramolecular distances, larger electron density values at the bond critical point and more negative binding energies.

A family of cationic halogen bonding [2]rotaxanes have been synthesised via an active-metal template synthetic strategy. 1H NMR spectroscopic anion titration investigations reveal these interlocked host systems recognize halides selectively over oxoanions in aqueous–organic solvent media. Furthermore, systematically modulating the rigidity and size of the rotaxanes’ anion binding cavities via metal complexation, as well as by varying the number of halogen bond-donor groups in the axle component, was found to dramatically influence halide anion selectivity.

In this work, we describe a novel halogen-bonded metal-organic cocrystal involving a square-planar Cu(ii) complex and 1,4-diiodotetrafluorobenzene (14tfib) by utilizing an amine ligand whose pendant acetyl group enables halogen bonding. The cocrystal was prepared by both mechanochemical synthesis (liquid-assisted grinding) and the conventional solution-based method. Crystal structure determination by single crystal X-ray diffraction revealed that the dominant supramolecular interactions are the I···O halogen bond between 14tfib and CuCl2(aap)2 building blocks, and the N–H···Cl hydrogen bonds between CuCl2(aap)2 molecules. The combination of halogen and hydrogen bonding leads to the formation of a 2D network. Overall, this work showcases an example of the possibility for extending the complexity of metal-organic crystal structures by using halogen bonding in a way that does not affect other hydrogen bonding synthons.

Halogen bonding is one of the most interesting noncovalent attractions capable of self-assembly and recognition processes in both solution and solid phase. In this contribution, we report on the formation of two solvates of tetrabromoterephthalic acid (H2Br4tp) with acetonitrile (MeCN) and methanol (MeOH) viz. H2Br4tp·2MeCN (1MeCN) and H2Br4tp·2MeOH (2MeOH). The host structures of both 1MeCN and 2MeOH are assembled via the occurrence of simultaneous Br···Br, Br···O, and Br···π halogen bonding interactions, existing between the H2Br4tp molecular tectons. Among them, the cooperative effect of the dominant halogen bond in combination with hydrogen bonding interactions gave rise to different supramolecular assemblies, whereas the strength of the halogen bond depends on the type of hydrogen bond between the molecules of H2Br4tp and the solvents. These materials show a reversible release/resorption of solvent molecules accompanied by evident crystallographic phase transitions.

The co-crystallisation behaviour of three symmetrical dipyridylacetylacetone ligands (1,3-di(2-pyridyl)-1,3-propanedione (o-bppdH), 1,3-di(3-pyridyl)-1,3-propanedione (m-bppdH), and 1,3-di(4-pyridyl)-1,3-propanedione (p-bppdH)), with the linear halogen-bond donor 1,4-diiodotetrafluorobenzene (1,4-DITFB) has been investigated. The reaction of these components under ambient conditions in a 1 : 1 stoichiometry produced four halogen-bonded assemblies ([o-bppdH·1,4-DITFB, [m-bppdH·1,4-DITFB], [2(m-bppdH)·1,4-DITFB], and [p-bppdH·1,4-DITFB]). The combination of multiple supramolecular interactions including halogen bonding, hydrogen bonding, and π-stacking produces a range of supramolecular architectures, including one-, two-, and three-dimensional motifs. The crystal structure of m-bppdH is also reported.
