Solid state synthesis under supramolecular control of a 2D heterotetratopic self-complementary tecton tailored to halogen bonding

Abstract

We describe the synthesis and characterization, by single crystal X-ray analysis, of a 1D heteroditopic self-complementary tecton for halogen bonding. It was designed to also incorporate double bonds and to possess heteropolar π–π stacking groups in order to carefully control its supramolecular organization in the solid state. As a result of this supramolecular control, by UV irradiation in the solid state the compound dimerizes forming a 2D heterotetratopic self-complementary tecton tailored to halogen bonding based self-assembly. This 2D tecton crystallizes clathrating chloroform molecules.
