Abstract
Among various non-covalent interactions, selenium-centered chalcogen bonds (SeChBs) have garnered considerable attention in recent years as a result of their important contributions to crystal engineering, organocatalysis, molecular recognition, materials science, and biological systems. Herein, we systematically investigated π-hole-type Se∙∙∙O/S ChBs in the binary complexes of SeO2 with a series of O-/S-containing Lewis bases by means of high-level ab initio computations. The results demonstrate that there exists an attractive interaction between the Se atom of SeO2 and the O/S atom of Lewis bases. The interaction energies computed at the MP2/aug-cc-pVTZ level range from -4.68 kcal/mol to -10.83 kcal/mol for the Se∙∙∙O chalcogen-bonded complexes and vary between -3.53 kcal/mol and -13.77 kcal/mol for the Se∙∙∙S chalcogen-bonded complexes. The Se∙∙∙O/S ChBs exhibit a relatively short binding distance in comparison to the sum of the van der Waals radii of two chalcogen atoms. The Se∙∙∙O/S ChBs in all of the studied complexes show significant strength and a closed-shell nature, with a partially covalent character in most cases. Furthermore, the strength of these Se∙∙∙O/S ChBs generally surpasses that of the C/O-H∙∙∙O hydrogen bonds within the same complex. It should be noted that additional C/O-H∙∙∙O interactions have a large effect on the geometric structures and strength of Se∙∙∙O/S ChBs. Two subunits are connected together mainly via the orbital interaction between the lone pair of O/S atoms in the Lewis bases and the BD*(OSe) anti-bonding orbital of SeO2, except for the SeO2∙∙∙HCSOH complex. The electrostatic component emerges as the largest attractive contributor for stabilizing the examined complexes, with significant contributions from induction and dispersion components as well.

Abstract
This review discusses the various types of noncovalent interactions in which sulfur atoms participate and their effects on protein stability, structure, folding and bioactivity. Current approaches and recommendations for modelling these noncovalent interactions (in terms of both geometries and interaction energies) are highlighted.

Abstract
![]()
A wide range of functionalized pyridine ligands have
been employed
to synthesize a variety of Pd(II) complexes of the general formulas
[PdL4](NO3)2 and [PdL2Y2], where L = 4-X-py
and Y = Cl– or NO3–. Their structures have been unambiguously established via analytical
and spectroscopic methods in solution (NMR spectroscopy and mass spectrometry)
as well as in the solid state (X-ray diffraction). This in-depth characterization
has shown that the functionalization of ligand molecules with groups
of either electron-withdrawing or -donating nature (EWG and EDG) results
in significant changes in the physicochemical properties of the desired
coordination compounds. Downfield shifts of signals in the 1H NMR spectra were observed upon coordination within and across the
complex families, clearly indicating the relationship between NMR
chemical shifts and the ligand basicity as estimated from pKa values. A detailed crystallographic study
has revealed the operation of a variety of weak interactions, which
may be factors explaining aspects of the solution chemistry of the
complexes. The Pd(II) complexes have been found to be efficient and
versatile precatalysts in Suzuki–Miyaura and Heck cross-coupling
reactions within a scope of structurally distinct substrates, and
factors have been identified that have contributed to efficiency improvement
in both processes. A wide range
of pyridine derivatives have been employed
to synthesize a variety of di- and tetrasubstituted Pd(II) complexes
of square-planar geometry. This in-depth characterization has shown
that the functionalization of ligand molecules with groups of either
electron-withdrawing or -donating nature results in significant changes
in the physicochemical properties of the coordination compounds. Moreover,
the complexes have been found to be of practical utility as efficient
precatalysts for both Suzuki−Miyaura and Heck cross-coupling
reactions.
