Halogen-bonded adducts formed by the tetradentate XB acceptor tetra-4-pyridyl-pentaerythritol. (a) Two-dimensional square grid formed with the bidentate XB donor 1,6-diiodoperfluorohexane; (b) three-dimensional adamantanoid network formed with the bidentate XB donor 1,4-diiodoperfluorobutane (Metrangolo et al., 2007). H atoms are omitted. XBs are shown as black dotted lines. XB separations, angles and colour codes are as in Fig. 1. |
