We developed a new laboratory polymerizing unit (Twinkle MIII: M3) equipped with different light sources (a metal halide and two halogen lamps) that could illuminate independently. This study introduced the structure of the curing unit and examined the curing depth of a representative indirect composite (Artglass). The composite material was cured with the following modes: 1) M3 - halogen only;...

A theoretical study of the complexes formed by hypohalous acids (HOX, X = F, Cl, Br, I, and At) with three nitrogenated bases (NH 3, N 2, and NCH) has been carried out by means of ab initio methods, up to MP2/aug-cc-pVTZ computational method. In general, two minima complexes are found, one with an OH...N hydrogen bond and the other one with a X...N halogen bond. While the first one is more stab...

Halogen bonding (XB) opens avenues to supramolecular assemblies. Here, we report XB-driven assemblies of quaternary ammonium iodide (QAI)-containing polymers in three (solution, surface, and solid) phases. In the solution, QAI-containing block copolymers form unique self-assembly structures such as micrometer-sized giant vesicles (up 5-μm diameter) a 1-dimensional (1D) structure with multiple i...

Few studies have been reported on the synthesis of ferrocenesulfonates up to now. Here, we describe use ortho-deprotometalation and “halogen dance” reactions easily reach original derivatives. Further functionalizations using cross-coupling metal/halogen exchange were also performed from iodinated Finally, while electrochemical properties selected evaluated compared with corresponding sulfonami...

We present the reactivity and photochemistry of 2,5-diphenyltellurophene. A change in oxidation state from Te(ii) to Te(iv) occurs by oxidative addition of bromine, chlorine, and fluorine from appropriate halogen sources. Photoreductive halogen elimination is demonstrated using optical absorption spectroscopy and NMR spectroscopy. The photodebromination reaction occurs with 16.9% quantum yield,...

Four halogen and hydrogen bonding rotaxane host systems featuring pyridinium bis-amide-iodotriazole/prototriazole and pyridinium bis-amide-iodotriazolium/prototriazolium axle components have been synthesized by CuAAC-mediated mono-stoppering chloride anion templation and post-rotaxanation methylation reactions. In competitive 45 : 45 : 10 CDCl3-CD3OD-D2O aqueous solvent media, the dicationic ha...

Structure and properties (energies, electronic, and thermodynamic properties) of complexes pyridine-XY (X, Y = F, Cl, Br) have been investigated at the MP2/aug-cc-pVDZ level. Two types of geometries (pi-halogen bonded and sigma-halogen bonded) are observed. In contrast with the previous results on similar furan and thiophene complexes, the sigma-halogen bonded structures are more stable and the...
