(15-crown-5)BiI3 as a Building Block for Halogen Bonded Supramolecular Aggregates

Abstract

We present the synthesis and characterization of (15-crown-5)BiI3 (1) and (15-crown-5)BiI3*0.5TIE (2), a halogen bonded adduct with tetraiodoethylene (TIE), a typical halogen bond donor. Our results show that crown ether complexes of main group metal halides can be employed as halogen bond acceptors for the synthesis of new supramolecular aggregates and highlight the significant interaction between the two building blocks.
