General description

1,4-Diiodotetrafluorobenzene forms trimeric complexes as new, halogen-bonded mesogens with two molecules of alkoxystilbazole. The electron density study of the halogen-bonded complex of 4,4′-dipyridyl-N,N′-dioxide with 1,4-diiodotetrafluorobenzene at 90K has been reported.

1,4-Diiodotetrafluorobenzene is a ditopic perfluorinated iodobenzene used for cocrystallization of halopyridinium salts.

Application

1,4-Diiodotetrafluorobenzene has been used as the halogen bonding donor during the preparation of phosphorescent cocrystal with polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons.

Here we introduce a σ-hole-containing volatile solid additive, 1, 4-diiodotetrafluorobenzene (A3), in PM6:Y6-based OSCs. Aside from the appropriate volatility of A3 additive, the synergetic halogen interactions between A3 and photoactive matrix contribute to more condensed and ordered molecular arrangement in

Dynamic processes have many implications in functional molecules, including catalysts, enzymes, host-guest complexes, and molecular machines. Here, we demonstrate via deuterium NMR relaxation experiments how halogen bonding directly impacts the dynamics in solid 2,3,5,6-tetramethylpyrazine cocrystals, catalyzing the methyl group rotation.
