A Robust Supramolecular Heterosynthon Assembled by a Hydrogen Bond and a Chalcogen Bond

The 1:1 and 2:1 cocrystals of isophthalic acid and 2,1,3-benzoselenadiazole have been successfully synthesized and resolved; the noncovalent interactions in the crystal structures have been studied in detail by quantum chemical calculations. In both of the crystal structures, isophthalic acid and 2,...

A Robust Supramolecular Heterosynthon Assembled by a Hydrogen Bond and a Chalcogen Bond
description The 1:1 and 2:1 cocrystals of isophthalic acid and 2,1,3-benzoselenadiazole have been successfully synthesized and resolved; the noncovalent interactions in the crystal structures have been studied in detail by quantum chemical calculations. In both of the crystal structures, isophthalic acid and 2,1,3-benzoselenadiazole are bound together by a cyclic supramolecular heterosynthon assembled by an O–H···N hydrogen bond and a N–Se···O chalcogen bond. The crystal structures of the 1:1 and 2:1 cocrystals of isophthalic acid and 2,1,3-benzoselenadiazole and the crystal structure of pure isophthalic acid are very similar, which indicates that the [COOH]···[Se−N] cyclic heterosynthon can be an effective alternative to the strong [COOH]<sub>2</sub> cyclic homosynthon. The quantum theory of atoms in molecules further recognizes the existence of the hydrogen bond and chalcogen bond. The results of quantum chemical calculations show that the strengths of the π···π stacking interactions in the 1:1 cocrystals of isophthalic acid and 2,1,3-benzoselenadiazole are almost the same as those in the 2:1 cocrystals of isophthalic acid and 2,1,3-benzoselenadiazole, and the strengths of the [COOH]···[Se−N] cyclic heterosynthons (about 9.00 kcal/mol) are less than the strengths of the much stronger [COOH]<sub>2</sub> cyclic homosynthons (14.00 kcal/mol). These calculated results are in good agreement with those experimentally observed, demonstrating that, although not as strong as the [COOH]<sub>2</sub> cyclic homosynthon, the [COOH]···[Se−N] cyclic heterosynthon can also play a key role in the crystal growth and design.
