چکیده

Isolation of pre-reactive complexes and analysis of kinetics of redox reactions of tetrabromomethane and tribromonitromethane demonstrated that halogen bonding results in significant lowering of the activation barriers for electron transfer, and that the rate constants of such (inner-sphere) processes can be evaluated from spectral, structural, and thermodynamic characteristics of the halogen-bonded associates.

Electron-transfer reactions of halogenated electrophiles: a different look into the nature of halogen bonding.

The rates of oxidation of ferrocene derivatives by brominated molecules R-Br (CBr3CN, CBr4, CBr3NO2, CBr3COCBr3, CBr3CONH2, CBr3F, and CBr3H) were consistent with the predictions of the outer-sphere dissociative electron-transfer theory. The similar redox-reactions of the R-Br electrophiles with the typical halogen-bond acceptors tetramethyl-p-phenylenediamine (TMPD) or iodide were much faster ...

From charge transfer to electron transfer in halogen-bonded complexes of electrophilic bromocarbons with halide anions.

Experimental and computational studies of the halogen-bonded complexes, [R-Br, X(-)], of bromosubstituted electrophiles, R-Br, and halide anions, X(-), revealed that decrease of a gap between the frontier orbitals of interacting species led to reduction of the energy of the optical charge-transfer transition and to increase in the ground-state charge transfer (X(-) → R-Br) in their associates. ...

A theoretical study on halogen-π interactions: X-C2-Y…C8H8 complexes

M06-2X functional was employed to study halogen-π interactions in X-C2-Y…C8H8 complexes (X, Y=H, F, Cl, and Br). In fact, interactions of mono- or di-halogenated acetylenes and planar cyclooctatetraene as an anti-aromatic π system were considered. Relationship between binding energies of the complexes and charge transfer effects was investigated. Also, electronic charge density values were calc...

Ab Initio Studies on the Interplay between Unconventional B•••X Halogen Bond and Lithium/Hydrogen/Halogen Bond in HB(CO)2•••XCN•••YF (X = Cl, Br; Y = Li, H, Cl) Complexes

In this paper, ab initio calculations were performed on the ternary complex formed by HB(CO)2, XCN (X = Cl, Br) and YF (Y = Li, H, Cl). In these complexes boron act as a non-classical electron donor to form a unconventional halogen bond. The cooperative effect between the B•••X halogen bond and lithium/hydrogen/halogen bond was investigated. The calculated results show that the B•••X and N•••Y ...

Halogen transfer through halogen bonds in halogen-bound ammonia homodimers.

Ab initio MP2(full)/aug-cc-pVTZ calculations have been carried out to investigate the halogen transfer between haloamines and ammonia. The results show that the formation of a halogen bond complex between ammonia and the protonated N-haloamine is a preliminary step in the halogen transfer process. The complexation energies, optimized geometries, topology of electron density and potential energy...
