Halogen bonding in self-complementary 1:2 metal-ligand complexes obtained from copper(II) bromide (CuBr2) and seven 2,5-dihalopyridines were analyzed using single-crystal x-ray diffraction. All presented discrete complexes form 1D polymeric chains connected with C-X···Br-Cu halogen bonds (XB). In (2-chloro-5-X-pyridine)2·CuBr2 (X = Cl, Br, and I) only the C5-halogen and in (2-bromo-5-X-pyridine)2·CuBr2 (X = Cl, Br, and I) both C2- and C5-halogens form C-X···Br-Cu halogen bonds with the X acting as the XB donor and copper-coordinated bromide as the XB acceptor. The electron-withdrawing C2-chloride in (2-chloro-5-X-pyridine)2·CuBr2 complexes has only a minor effect on the C5-X5···Br-Cu XBs, and the X5···Br distances follow the expected order I5 < Br5 < Cl5 with RXB values of 0.91, 0.94, and 0.99, resp. In (2-bromo-5-X-pyridine)2·CuBr2 complexes, due to the polarization of both halogens, the C2-X2···Br-Cu and C5-X5···Br-Cu RXB values are very similar [0.92-0.99] as a result of the competition between C2- and C5-halogens for XB formation. In addition to the classical halogen bonds, the square-planar CuII complexes exhibit C2-X2···Cu(X = Cl and Br) contacts perpendicular to the Br-Cu-Br plane with shorter C2-Br2···Cu than C2-Cl2···Cu contacts. These interactions induce a pseudo-octahedral geometry for CuII ions. Notably, C2-X2···Br-Cu halogen bonds and the addnl. C2-X2···Cu contacts are slightly enhanced by the C5-halogen electronegativity. In the experiment, the researchers used many compounds, for example, 5-Bromo-2-chloropyridine(cas: 53939-30-3Recommanded Product: 53939-30-3)
5-Bromo-2-chloropyridine(cas: 53939-30-3) belongs to pyridine. Pyridines are often used as catalysts or reagents; particular notice has been paid recently to how pyridine coordinates to metal centers enabling a wide range of valuable reactions. Recommanded Product: 53939-30-3
