Self-assembly of carborane molecules via C–H⋯I hydrogen bonding: the molecular and crystal structures of 3-I-1,2-closo-C2B10H11
Abstract
The crystal structure of 3-I-1,2-closo-C2B10H11 reveals that molecules are arranged as infinite head-to-tail zig-zag double chains held together by C–H⋯I hydrogen bonding.
