Abstract
Cocrystallizations of trans-[PtX'2(NCNR2)2] (R2 = Me2, X' = Cl 1a, Br 1b, I 1c; R2 = (CH2)5, X' = I 2c) with SbX3 (X = Cl, Br, I) gave 1:2 cocrystals 1a·2SbCl3, 1b·2SbBr3, 1c·2SbCl3, 1c·2SbBr3, 1c·2SbI3, and 2c·2SbI3. In all six X-ray structures, the association of the molecular coformers is achieved mainly by SbIII···dz2[PtII] metal-involving intermolecular pnictogen bonding. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations (based on experimentally determined geometries) using both gas-phase and solid-state approximations revealed that a σ-(Sb)-hole interacts with an area of negative potential associated with the dz2-orbital of the positively charged platinum(II) sites, thus forming a pnictogen bond whose energy falls in the range between -7.3 and -16.9 kcal/mol.

Abstract
The structure-directing "key-to-lock" interaction of double σ-(IIII)-hole donating iodonium cations with the O-flanked pseudo-lacune rims of [β-Mo8O26]4- gives halogen-bonded iodonium-beta-octamolybate supramolecular associates. In the occurrence of their tetragonal pyramidal motifs, deep and broad σ-(IIII)-holes of a cation recognize the molybdate backbone, which provides an electronic pool localized around the two lacunae. The halogen-bonded I⋯O linkages in the structures were thoroughly studied computationally and classified as two-center, three-center bifurcated, and unconventional "orthogonal" I⋯O halogen bonds. In the latter, the O-atom approaches orthogonally the C-IIII-C plane of an iodonium cation and this geometry diverge from the IUPAC criteria for the identification of the halogen bond.

Abstract
The stability of hybrid organic-inorganic halide perovskite semiconductors remains a significant obstacle to their application in photovoltaics. To this end, the use of low-dimensional (LD) perovskites, which incorporate hydrophobic organic moieties, provides an effective strategy to improve their stability, yet often at the expense of their performance. To address this limitation, supramolecular engineering of noncovalent interactions between organic and inorganic components has shown potential by relying on hydrogen bonding and conventional van der Waals interactions. Here, the capacity to access novel LD perovskite structures that uniquely assemble through unorthodox S-mediated interactions is explored by incorporating benzothiadiazole-based moieties. The formation of S-mediated LD structures is demonstrated, including one-dimensional (1D) and layered two-dimensional (2D) perovskite phases assembled via chalcogen bonding and S-π interactions, through a combination of techniques, such as single crystal and thin film X-ray diffraction, as well as solid-state NMR spectroscopy, complemented by molecular dynamics simulations, density functional theory calculations, and optoelectronic characterization, revealing superior conductivities of S-mediated LD perovskites. The resulting materials are applied in n-i-p and p-i-n perovskite solar cells, demonstrating enhancements in performance and operational stability that reveal a versatile supramolecular strategy in photovoltaics.

Illuminating a Solvent-Dependent Hierarchy for Aromatic CH/π Complexes with Dynamic Covalent Glyco-Balances. JACS AU 2024; 4:476-490. [PMID: 38425929 PMCID: PMC10900200 DOI: 10.1021/jacsau.3c00592] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/03/2023] [Revised: 12/11/2023] [Accepted: 12/11/2023] [Indexed: 03/02/2024]
Abstract
CH/π interactions are prevalent among aromatic complexes and represent invaluable tools for stabilizing well-defined molecular architectures. Their energy contributions are exceptionally sensitive to various structural and environmental factors, resulting in a context-dependent nature that has led to conflicting findings in the scientific literature. Consequently, a universally accepted hierarchy for aromatic CH/π interactions has remained elusive. Herein, we present a comprehensive experimental investigation of aromatic CH/π complexes, employing a novel approach that involves isotopically labeled glyco-balances generated in situ. This innovative strategy not only allows us to uncover thermodynamic insights but also delves into the often less-accessible domain of kinetic information. Our analyses have yielded more than 180 new free energy values while considering key factors such as solvent properties, the interaction geometry, and the presence and nature of accompanying counterions. Remarkably, the obtained results challenge conventional wisdom regarding the stability order of common aromatic complexes. While it was believed that cationic CH/π interactions held the highest strength, followed by polarized CH/π, nonpolarized CH/π, and finally anionic CH/π interactions, our study reveals that this hierarchy can be subverted depending on the environment. Indeed, the performance of polarized CH/π interactions can match or even outcompete that of cationic CH/π interactions making them a more reliable stabilization strategy across the entire spectrum of solvent polarity. Overall, our results provide valuable guidelines for the selection of optimal interacting partners in every chemical environment, allowing the design of tailored aromatic complexes with applications in supramolecular chemistry, organocatalysis, and/or material sciences.

Abstract
The catalytic potential of organo-onium iodides as nucleophilic catalysts is aptly demonstrated in the synthesis of cyclic carbonates from epoxides and carbon dioxide (CO2 ), as a representative CO2 utilization reaction. Although organo-onium iodide nucleophilic catalysts are metal-free environmentally benign catalysts, harsh reaction conditions are generally required to efficiently promote the coupling reactions of epoxides and CO2 . To solve this problem and accomplish efficient CO2 utilization reactions under mild conditions, bifunctional onium iodide nucleophilic catalysts bearing a hydrogen bond donor moiety were developed by our research group. Based on the successful bifunctional design of the onium iodide catalysts, nucleophilic catalysis using a potassium iodide (KI)-tetraethylene glycol complex was also investigated in coupling reactions of epoxides and CO2 under mild reaction conditions. These effective bifunctional onium and potassium iodide nucleophilic catalysts were applied to the solvent-free syntheses of 2-oxazolidinones and cyclic thiocarbonates from epoxides.

Abstract
We designed 0D, 1D, and 2D supramolecular assemblies made of diaryliodonium salts (functioning as double σ-hole donors) and carboxylates (as σ-hole acceptors). The association was based on two charge-supported halogen bonds (XB), which occurred between IIII sites of the iodonium cations and the carboxylate anions. The sequential introduction of the carboxylic groups in the aryl ring of the benzoic acid added a dimension to the 0D supramolecular organization of the benzoate, which furnished 1D-chained and 2D-layered structures when terephthalate and trimesate anions, correspondingly, were applied as XB acceptors. The structure-directing XB were studied using DFT calculations under periodic boundary conditions and were followed by the one-electron-potential analysis and the Bader atoms-in-molecules topological analysis of electron density. These theoretical methods confirmed the existence of the XB and verified the philicities of the interaction partners in the designed solid-state structures.

Abstract
Inspired by automated DNA synthesis, electron-rich dialkoxynaphthalene (DAN) donor and electron-deficient naphthalene-tetracarboxylic diimide (NDI) acceptor phosphodiester-linked homohexamers were synthesized by the phosphoramidite method. Two types of hexamers were prepared, one with only one phosphodiester between the aromatics (i.e., DAN or NDI) and a second with two phosphodiesters around a propanediol between the aromatics, leading to the latter more flexible and more hydrophilic hexamers. The folding properties of these homohexamers alone or mixed together, in water only, were studied by UV-visible absorption spectroscopy and atomic force microscopy (AFM). AFM imaging revealed that a 1:1 mixture of hexaDAN and hexaNDI formed fibers by charge transfer donor-acceptor recognition leading to a hydrogel after drying. The organization of the resulting structures is strongly dependent on the nature of the complementary partner, leading to the formation of mono- or multilayer hydrogel networks with different compactness.

Abstract
We present a systematic structural and energetic characterization of phosphate(OP)-nucleobase anion…π stacking interactions in RNAs. We observed OP-nucleobase stacking contacts in a variety of structural motifs other than regular helices and spanning broadly diverse sequence distances. Apart from the stacking between a phosphate and a guanine or a uracil two-residue upstream in specific U-turns, such interactions in RNA have been scarcely characterized to date. Our QM calculations showed an energy minimum at a distance between the OP atom and the nucleobase plane centroid slightly below 3 Å for all the nucleobases. By sliding the OP atom over the nucleobase plane we localized the optimal mutual positioning of the stacked moieties, corresponding to an energy minimum below -6 kcal•mol-1, for all the nucleobases, consistently with the projections of the OP atoms over the different π-rings we observed in experimental occurrences. We also found that the strength of the interaction clearly correlates with its electrostatic component, pointing to it as the most relevant contribution. Finally, as OP-uracil and OP-guanine interactions represent together 86% of the instances we detected, we also proved their stability under dynamic conditions in model systems simulated by state-of-the art DFT-MD calculations.

Abstract
The instability of hybrid organic-inorganic halide perovskites presents one of the pressing challenges for their application. This is associated with the sensitivity to moisture as well as mixed ionic-electronic conductivity that leads to enhanced ion migration under conditions of voltage and light bias. Some of the most effective strategies to stabilize hybrid perovskite materials during operation involve the use of interfacial molecular assemblies and low-dimensional perovskite architectures based on hydrophobic organic moieties that could suppress the effects of moisture or ion migration. For this purpose, perfluoroarenes have provided a versatile platform due to their enhanced hydrophobicity as well as the capacity to engage in various noncovalent interactions that affect the characteristics of the resulting assemblies as well as ion migration. This Perspective discusses the emerging role of perfluoroarenes in stabilizing hybrid perovskite materials and their photovoltaic devices through different modes of action, offering insights for the design of advanced materials.

Abstract
The burgeoning noncovalent interactions between π-acidic aromatic surfaces and anions have been recently shown to have unique functional relevance in anion transport, ion sensing, and organocatalysis. Despite its potential to instigate charge-transfer (CT) states, modulation of the emission features by toggling between the excited states using anion-π interactions is not yet explored. On the other hand, excited states with CT characteristics play an important role in the ambient triplet harvesting of organic chromophores. In this context, herein we propose an anion-π-based molecular design for the introduction of emissive singlet and triplet CT excited states, thereby expanding the functional scope of these weak supramolecular interactions. In the present study, we investigate the anion-π-induced emission from the singlet (1CT) and triplet (3CT) CT states of a dibromo dicationic pyromellitic diimide derivative. Remarkably, we accomplish dual room temperature phosphorescence emission from the anion-π-mediated 3CT state along with the locally excited triplet state (3LE) in solution phase using an organic-inorganic supramolecular scaffolding strategy. Comprehensive steady-state and time-resolved spectroscopy along with theoretical calculations provide detailed insights into the excited-state manifolds of phosphor. We envisage that the present study will expedite new molecular designs based on weak intermolecular interactions for the excited-state engineering of organic chromophores to facilitate ambient triplet harvesting and CT emission.

Abstract
We disclosed a visible-light-induced alkylarylation reaction of unactivated alkenes via a metal-free radical addition/aryl translocation cascade sequence. Distal olefinic sulfonate was designed as a unique molecular scaffold allowing for a domino process to synthesize valuable alkylarylated alcohols in good yields with excellent diastereoselectivity, featuring mild reaction conditions, broad substrate scope, and excellent functional group tolerance. The mechanism investigation suggests that a visible-light-induced radical chain process dominates the cascade transformation.

Abstract
Halogen bonding is rapidly becoming recognized as a viable and useful intermolecular interaction in supramolecular chemistry. While various monomers amenable to radical polymerization methods containing halogen bonding donors have been developed, this study aims to expand the type of monomers that incorporate this intermolecular interaction to facilitate use of cationic polymerization by developing three novel vinyl ether monomers containing halogen bonding donor moieties: 2,3,5,6-tetrafluoro-4-iodophenoxyethyl vinyl ether (C2I), 2,3,5,6-tetrafluoro-4-iodophenoxybutyl vinyl ether (C4I), and 2-(2,3,5,6-tetrafluoro-4-iodophenoxyethoxy)ethyl vinyl ether (O3I). Well controlled cationic polymerization is achievable through the use of a proton trap, 2,6-di-tert-butylpyridine. The use of SnCl4 as a co-Lewis acid was found to accelerate the reaction. Between the three monomers, the difference in the chain length is shown to influence the reaction rate, with the longest chain demonstrating the fastest polymerization. Initial studies of the halogen bonding ability shows that halogen bonding exists for all three monomers but is most pronounced in C4I. The polymerized vinyl ethers also exhibit halogen bonding. Due to the ease of synthesis and polymerization, these are promising new monomers to increase functionality available for polymers synthesized using cationic polymerization. Three novel vinyl ether monomers containing halogen bonding moieties were synthesized, polymerized via cationic polymerization and exhibited clear halogen bonding.![]()

Abstract
As an emerging class of flexible materials, mechanically bendable molecular crystals are broadly classified as elastic or plastic. Nevertheless, flexible organic crystals with mutually exclusive elastic and plastic traits, with contrasting structural requirements, co-existing under different stress settings are exceptional; hence, it is imperative to establish the concurring factors that beget this rare occurrence. We report a series of halogen-substituted benzil crystals showing elastic bending (within ∼2.45% strain), followed by elastoplastic deformation under ambient conditions. Under higher stress settings, they display exceptional plastic flexibility that one could bend, twist, or even coil around a capillary tube. X-ray diffraction, microscopy, and computational data reveal the microscopic and macroscopic basis for the exciting co-existence of elastic, elastoplastic, and plastic properties in the crystals. The layered molecular arrangement and the weak dispersive interactions sustaining the interlayer region provide considerable tolerance towards breaking and making upon engaging or releasing the external stress; it enables restoring the original state within the elastic strain. Comparative studies with oxalate compounds, wherein the twisted diketo moiety in benzil was replaced with a rigid and coplanar central oxalate moiety, enabled us to understand the effect of the anisotropy factor on the crystal packing induced by the C

O⋯C tetral interactions. The enhanced anisotropy depreciated the elastic domain, making the oxalate crystals more prone to plastic deformation. Three-point bending experiments and the determined Young's moduli further corroborate the co-existence of the elastic and plastic realm and highlight the critical role of the underlying structural elements that determine the elastic to plastic transformation. The work highlights the possible co-existence of orthogonal mechanical characteristics in molecular crystals and further construed the concurrent role of microscopic and macroscopic elements in attaining this exceptional mechanical trait. Structural and mechanical studies of benzil and oxalate crystals highlight the microscopic and macroscopic basis for the co-existence of orthogonal mechanical traits and the elastic to plastic transformation under different stress settings.![]()

Abstract
Exploiting noncovalent π-interactions particularly emerging anion-π interactions to drive efficient catalysis is fascinating. Even with exciting progresses, can anion-π activation operate in water remains elusive. Here we report the design, synthesis and catalytic studies of a class of water-soluble electron-deficient molecular cages and relevant aromatic slide compounds. The prism-like cages contain three divided, long, cationic aromatic walls which constitute three highly electron-deficient V-shape cavities. They were efficiently synthesized in two steps from a parent triformyl cage in gram-scale. Crystal structure showed the π-walls bind to the counter bromide through strong anion-π interactions. Just 5 mol% of cages were effective in catalyzing decarboxylative Aldol reactions of aldehydes and malonic acid half thioesters in water but not in organic solvents, showing a pronounced hydrophobic amplification effect. Meantime, a series of single π-slides resembling the π-wall of the cage performed equally well, while those lacking an extended π-surface were ineffective, highlighting the essential role of electron-deficient π-face on promoting the conversion.

Abstract
Since its discovery two decades ago, anion-π interaction has been increasingly recognized as an important driving force. Extensive theoretical and experimental efforts on the ground-state anion-π binding and recognition have laid the bases for exploring its relevance in catalysis. Accordingly, the concept of "anion-π catalysis" that employing an electron-deficient π surface (π-acidic surface) for anionic reaction intermediate and transition state stabilization has emerged. This article shortly reviews the emergence and development of this concept, aiming to provide an emphasis on the general concept and key progress in this exciting area. To highlight the essential contribution of anion-π interactions, the contents are organized according to their role engaged in catalytic process, for example from both ground-state and transition-state stabilization to solely transition-state stabilization, mainly by a single π-face, and to cooperative π-face activation. A concluding remark and outlook on future development of this field is also given.

Abstract
Exploiting anion-π interactions in catalyst design is a fascinating direction to develop new and fundamental catalysis. For the appealing yet flexible π-face activation, can two or more π-acidic surfaces be manipulated for cooperative activation to achieve efficient transformation and particularly selectivity control is highly desirable. Here, we demonstrate a supramolecular π-catalysis strategy by establishing cooperative π-face activation in a confined electron-deficient cage cavity. The catalysts have a triazine based prism-like cage core and pendant chiral base sites. Only 2 mol % of cage catalyst efficiently catalyzed the decarboxylate Mannich reactions of sulfamate-headed cyclic aldimines and a series of malonic acid half thioesters in nearly quantitative yields and up to 97 % ee, enabling an unprecedent organocatalytic approach. The supramolecular π-cavity is essential in harnessing cooperative anion-π interactions for the efficient activation and excellent selectivity control.

Abstract
While the integration of supramolecular principles in catalysis attracts increasing attention, a direct comparative assessment of the resulting systems catalysts to work out distinct characteristics is often difficult. Herein is reported how the broad responsiveness of ether cyclizations to diverse inputs promises to fill this gap. Cyclizations in the confined, π-basic and Brønsted acidic interior of supramolecular capsules, for instance, are found to excel with speed (exceeding general Brønsted acid and hydrogen-bonding catalysts by far) and selective violations of the Baldwin rules (as extreme as the so far unique pnictogen-bonding catalysts). The complementary cyclization on π-acidic aromatic surfaces remains unique with regard to autocatalysis, which is shown to be chemo- and diastereoselective with regard to product-like co-catalysts but, so far, not enantioselective.

Abstract
A combined experimental and theoretical approach has been used to study intermolecular chalcogen bonding. Specifically, the chalcogen bonding occurring between halide anions and CS2 molecules has been investigated using both anion photoelectron spectroscopy and high-level CCSD(T) calculations. The relative strength of the chalcogen bond has been determined computationally using the complex dissociation energies as well as experimentally using the electron stabilisation energies. The anion complexes featured dissociation energies on the order of 47 kJ/mol to 37 kJ/mol, decreasing with increasing halide size. Additionally, the corresponding neutral complexes have been examined computationally, and show three loosely-bound structural motifs and a molecular radical.

Abstract
AbstractNoncovalent interactions such as halogen bonding (XB) and chalcogen bonding (ChB) have gained increased interest over the last decade. Whereas XB-based organocatalysis has been studied in some detail by now, intermolecular ChB catalysis only emerged quite recently. Herein, bidentate cationic tellurium-based chalcogen bond donors are employed in the catalytic chloride abstraction of 1-chloroisochroman. While selenium-based ChB catalysts showed only minor activity in this given benchmark reaction, tellurium-based variants exhibited strong activity, with rate accelerations of up to 40 relative to non-chalogenated reference compounds. In general, the activity of the catalysts improved with weaker coordinating counterions, but tetrafluoroborate took part in a fluoride transfer side reaction. Catalyst stability was confirmed via a fluoro-tagged variant.

Abstract
The development of noncovalent halogen bonding (XB) catalysis is rapidly gaining traction, as isolated reports documented better performance than the well-established hydrogen bonding thiourea catalysis. However, convincing cases allowing XB activation to be competitive in challenging bond formations are lacking. Herein, we report a robust XB catalyzed 2-deoxyglycosylation, featuring a biomimetic reaction network indicative of dynamic XB activation. Benchmarking studies uncovered an improved substrate tolerance compared to thiourea-catalyzed protocols. Kinetic investigations reveal an autoinductive sigmoidal kinetic profile, supporting an in situ amplification of a XB dependent active catalytic species. Kinetic isotopic effect measurements further support quantum tunneling in the rate determining step. Furthermore, we demonstrate XB catalysis tunability via a halogen swapping strategy, facilitating 2-deoxyribosylations of D-ribals. This protocol showcases the clear emergence of XB catalysis as a versatile activation mode in noncovalent organocatalysis, and as an important addition to the catalytic toolbox of chemical glycosylations. Halogen bonding (HB) catalysis is rapidly gaining momentum, however, cases of XB activation for challenging bonds formation are rare. Here, the authors show a robust XB catalyzed 2-deoxyglycosylation with broad scope and featuring a quantum tunneling phenomenon in the proton transfer rate determining step.

Abstract
Substituents alter the electron density distribution in benzene in various ways, depending on their electron withdrawing and donating capabilities, as summarized by the empirical Hammett equation. The change of the π electron density distribution subsequently impacts the interaction of substituted benzenes or other cyclic conjugated rings with anions. Currently the design and synthesis of conjugated cyclic receptors capable of binding anions is an active field due to their applications in the sensing and removal of environmental contaminants and molecular recognition. By using the block-localized wavefunction (BLW) method, which is a variant of ab initio valence bond (VB) theory and can derive the reference resonance-free state self-consistently, we quantified the resonance-assisted (RA) or resonance-impaired (RI) phenomena in anion–π interactions from both structural and energetic perspectives. The frozen interaction, in which the electrostatic attraction is involved, has been shown to be the governing factor for the RA or RI interactions with anions. Energy analyses based on the empirical point charge (EPC) model indicated that the anion–π interactions can be simplified as the attraction between a negative point charge (anion) and a group of local dipoles, affected by the enriched or diminished π-cloud due to the resonance between the substituents and the conjugated ring. Hence, two strategies for the design of novel anion receptors can be envisioned. One is the enhancement of the magnitudes and/or numbers of local dipoles (polarized σ bonds), and the other is the reduction of π electron density in conjugated rings. For cases with the RI characteristics, “curved” aromatic molecules are preferred to be anion receptors. Indeed, extremely strong binding was found in complexes formed with fluorinated corannulene (F-CDD) and fluorinated [5]cycloparaphenylene (F-[5]CPP). Inspired by the RA phenomenon, complexes of p-, o- and m-benzoquinones with halides were revisited. Substituents alter the electron density distribution in benzene in various ways, depending on their electron withdrawing and donating capabilities, as summarized by the empirical Hammett equation.![]()

Abstract
This study marks chemical space available for pnictogen-bonding catalysis, and demonstrates that reactivity accessible in this space is unique.
Pnictogen-bond donors are attractive for use in catalysis because of deep σ holes, high multivalency, rich hypervalency, and chiral binding pockets. We here report natural product inspired epoxide-opening polyether cyclizations catalyzed by fluoroarylated Sb(v) > Sb(iii) > Bi > Sn > Ge. The distinctive characteristic found for pnictogen-bonding catalysis is the breaking of the Baldwin rules, that is selective endo cyclization into the trans-fused ladder oligomers known from the brevetoxins. Moreover, tris(3,4,5-trifluorophenyl)stibines and their hypervalent stiborane catecholates afford different anti-Baldwin stereoselectivity. Lewis (SbCl3), Brønsted (AcOH) and π acids fail to provide similar access to these forbidden rings. Like hydrogen-bonding catalysis differs from Brønsted acid catalysis, pnictogen-bonding catalysis thus emerges as the supramolecular counterpart of covalent Lewis acid catalysis.

Abstract
Despite the progress in the study of anion-π interactions, there are still inconsistencies in the use of this term and the experimental data about factors affecting the strength of such bonding are limited. To shed light on these issues, we explored supramolecular associations between NCS- anions and a series of aromatic, olefinic or quinoidal π-acceptors. Combined experimental and computational studies revealed that all these complexes were formed by an attraction of the anion to the face of the π-system, and the arrangements of thiocyanate followed the areas of the most positive potentials on the surfaces of the π-acceptors. The stabilities of the complexes increased with the π-acceptor strength (reflected by their reduction potentials), and were essentially independent of the magnitudes of the maximum electrostatic potentials on their surfaces. The complexes showed intense absorption bands in the UV-Vis range, and the energies of these bands were correlated with the difference of the redox potentials of the anions and π-acceptors. Such features, as well as results of atoms-in-molecules and non-covalent index analyses suggested that besides electrostatics, molecular orbital interactions play a substantial role in the formation of these complexes. The unified trends in variations of the characteristics of the complexes between thiocyanate and a variety of π-acceptors point to their common nature. To embrace diversity and uniformity of the anion-π associates, we suggest (following the halogen bond's definition) that anion-π bonding occurs when there is evidence of a net attraction between the anions and the face of the electrophilic π-system.

Abstract
The synthesis and properties of new chalcone ligand 4I-L ((2E)-1-[4-(1H-imidazol-1-yl)phenyl]-3-(4-iodophenyl)prop-2-en-1-one) and tetracoordinate Co(II) complex [Co(4I-L)2Cl2], (1a), are reported in this article. Upon recrystallization of 1a, the single crystals of [Co(4I-L)4Cl2]·2DMF·3Et2O (1b) were obtained and crystal structure was determined using X-ray diffraction. The non-covalent interactions in 1b were thoroughly analyzed and special attention was dedicated to interactions formed by the peripheral iodine substituents. The density functional theory (DFT), atoms in molecule (AIM) and noncovalent interaction (NCI) methods and electronic localization function (ELF) calculations were used to investigate halogen bond formed between the iodine functional groups and co-crystallized molecules of diethyl ether.

Abstract
In this report, cell-penetrating streptavidin (CPS) is introduced to exploit the full power of streptavidin-biotin biotechnology in cellular uptake. For this purpose, transporters, here cyclic oligochalcogenides (COCs), are covalently attached to lysines of wild-type streptavidin. This leaves all four biotin binding sites free for at least bifunctional delivery. To maximize the standards of the quantitative evaluation of cytosolic delivery, the recent chloroalkane penetration assay (CAPA) is coupled with automated high content (HC) imaging, a technique that combines the advantages of fluorescence microscopy and flow cytometry. According to the resulting HC-CAPA, cytosolic delivery of CPS equipped with four benzopolysulfanes was the best among all tested CPSs, also better than the much smaller TAT peptide, the original cell-penetrating peptide from HIV. HaloTag-GFP fusion proteins expressed on mitochondria were successfully targeted using CPS carrying two different biotinylated ligands, HaloTag substrates or anti-GFP nanobodies, interfaced with peptide nucleic acids, flipper force probes, or fluorescent substrates. The delivered substrates could be released from CPS into the cytosol through desthiobiotin-biotin exchange. These results validate CPS as a general tool which enables unrestricted use of streptavidin-biotin biotechnology in cellular uptake.

Abstract
Charge-accelerated rearrangements present interesting challenges to enantioselective catalysis, due in large part to the competing requirements for maximizing reactivity (ion-pair separation) and stereochemical communication. Herein, we describe application of a synergistic ion-binding strategy to catalyze the anionic oxy-Cope rearrangement of a symmetric bis-styrenyl allyl alcohol in up to 75:25 e.r. Structure-reactivity-selectivity relationship studies, including linear free-energy-relationship analyses, with bifunctional urea catalysts indicate that H-bonding and cation-binding interactions act cooperatively to promote the chemo- and enantioselective [3,3]-rearrangement. Implications for catalyst designs applicable to other transformations involving oxyanionic intermediates are discussed.

Abstract
![]()
A central ZF3 molecule (Z = P, As, Sb, Bi) is allowed
to interact with a number of nucleophiles exemplified by NCH, NH3, and NC– anion. The Z···N
pnicogen bond (ZB) to a single base grows stronger for heavier Z atom:
P < A < Sb < Bi and follows the NCH < NH3 <
NC– order for the three bases. The maximum number
of ZBs depends on both the nature of the base and pnicogen atom. PF3 and AsF3 can pnicogen bond with only a single
CN–; SbF3 and BiF3 can interact
with two anions but only weakly. The weak NCH nucleophile can engage
in a maximum of two ZBs, while three ZBs occur for NH3.
The latter NH3 maximum can be extended to four ZBs but
only for BiF3. The fourth ZB is somewhat longer and weaker
than the others, and the entire (H3N)4···BiF3 complex relies partially on secondary interactions for its
stability.

Abstract
2,4,6-Dipicolylamine-functionalized 1,3,5-triazine (dpat) was isolated. When reacted with LaCl3, compound [(LaCl6)(H3dpat)][H2O]2 (1) formed, which crystallized in the monoclinic P21/n space group with parameters a = 11.47 Å, b = 19.22 Å, c = 20.98 Å, V = 4652.02 Å, and β = 90.53°. When reacted with NdCl3, the complex [NdCl3(H2O)4(H3dpat)][Cl]3(MeOH)2 (2) crystallized in the monoclinic P21/n space group with unit cell parameters a = 20.05 Å, b = 12.81 Å, c = 20.64 Å, V = 5004.40 Å, and β = 110.20°. In both cases, the dpat ligand forms a bowl-shaped cavity that partially envelops the LnIII-containing central unit, which is anionic in 1 and neutral in 2. The formation of these outer-sphere complexes is supported by secondary interactions, including π-π stacking, hydrogen bonding, and anion-π between the chlorolanthanide(III) fragment and the electron-deficient 1,3,5-triazine ring. Evidence of protonation of the pyridine rings in dpat was substantiated through the isolation of [H2dpat][Cl]2 (3). This compound crystallized in the monoclinic C2/c space group with parameters a = 11.93 Å, b = 20.22 Å, c = 15.28 Å, V = 3664.97 Å, and β = 94.35°. Four pyridine rings are pairwise protonated in 3. dpat showed a moderate ability to extract LaIII from an aqueous to an organic phase, indicating its potential, through judicious manipulation of secondary-sphere interactions, as the starting point for efficient extractants for LnIII ions.

Abstract
Non-covalent molecular interactions on the basis of halogen and chalcogen bonding represent a promising, powerful catalytic activation mode. However, these "unusual" non-covalent interactions are typically employed in the solid state and scarcely exploited in catalysis. In recent years, an increased interest in halogen and chalcogen bonding has been awaken, as they provide profound characteristics that make them an appealing alternative to the well-explored hydrogen bonding. Being particularly relevant in the binding of "soft" substrates, the similar strength to hydrogen bonding interactions and its higher directionality allows for solution-phase applications with halogen and chalcogen bonding as the key interaction. In this mini-review, the special features, state-of-the-art and key examples of these so-called σ-hole interactions in the field of organocatalysis are presented.

Abstract
Interchange of complex formation and electron-transfer reactions between halide anions and p-benzoquinones were established via UV-vis spectral and X-ray structural measurements and computational analysis. Solution-phase interaction of the p-benzoquinone acceptors with Cl-, Br-, or I- donors led to the formation of anion-π complexes showing strong absorption bands in the UV-vis range. Formation constants and calculated interaction energies of these complexes increased, and donor/acceptor separations decreased with increasing reduction potentials of p-benzoquinones. Mulliken correlation and NBO analysis indicated a charge-transfer nature of these anion-π associates. Most notably, the increase of the acceptor strength led to a transition between the formation of the persistent anion-π complexes and electron-transfer reactions. Thermodynamic analysis accounted for the experimental observations of anion radicals and trihalide anions in solutions of p-benzoquinones with iodide or (for the strongest acceptor) bromide donors. Kinetics of these processes indicated that anion-π complexes represent critical intermediates of the redox reactions. In contrast to Cl-, Br-, or I- anions, interaction of p-benzoquinones with F- anions led to the formation of σ-complexes, and the appearance of anion radicals in such systems was related to the follow-up reactions of these complexes.

Abstract
When bound to a pair of F atoms and a phenyl ring, a pyramidal pnicogen (Z) atom can form a pnicogen bond wherein an NH3 base lies opposite one F atom. In addition to this σ-hole complex, the ZF2C6H5 molecule can distort in such a way that the NH3 approaches on the opposite side to the lone pair on Z, where there is a so-called π-hole. The interaction energies of these π-hole dimers are roughly 30 kcal/mol, much larger than the equivalent quantities for the σ-hole complexes, which are only 4-13 kcal/mol. On the other hand, this large interaction energy is countered by the considerable deformation energy required for the Lewis acid to adopt the geometry necessary to form the π-hole complex. The overall energetics of the complexation reaction are thus more exothermic for the σ-hole dimers than for the π-hole dimers.
