The Halogen Bond: Features • Electron density is anisotropicallydistributed around halogen atoms in organic halides. • The binding nature of XBs results in the D···X distances being shorter than the sum of the van derWaals radii of the involved atoms, and a strong tendency for Y-X…D linearity. • The formation of a halogen bond slightly lengthens the covalent Y-X bond.
The Halogen Bond: Features • Halogen bonding has an impact on all research fields where the control of intermolecular recognition and self-assembly processes plays a key role. • The strength of a halogen bond increases with the electron-withdrawing nature of the atom they are covalently bound to. • The strength of a halogen bond follows the general trend Cl< Br < I.
The strength of a halogen bond increases with the electron-withdrawing nature of the atom they are covalently bound to.
The Halogen Bond: Features Amphiphilic character:
The Halogen Bond: In protein-ligand environments, halogen bonds can be formed between a halogenated ligand and any accessible Lewis base in the binding pocket. the backbone carbonyl oxygen function is the most prominent Lewis base. halogen bonds can also be formed with side-chain groups, such as hydroxyls, carboxylates, sulfur, nitrogen, and the π surfaces of phenylalanine, tyrosine, histidine, and tryptophan
Halogen bonding has been used for topochemical polymerization of olefines. • Halogen bonding and p…p stacking both control reactivity in the solid state. • Synthesis of tetrakis(4-pyridyl)cyclobutane isomer via templated photoreaction in the solid state. JACS. 2004, 126, 4500

Computational and Theoretical Chemistry 998 , 183–192, 2012 Research Project: N-X…N Interactions (X = H, Cl, Br, I) To examine the strength of the N-X…N interactions for X=Cl, Br, or I (halogen bond) relative to that for X=H (hydrogen bond). Formamidineand its monohalogenatedanalogues were used as model systems. The MP2 ab initio method, and the B3LYP density functional theory method were used.
