An Adaptable and Dynamically Porous Organic Salt Traps Unique Tetrahalide Dianions1. Issue 50 (7th November 2013) - Martí‐Rujas, Javier
Abstract Bis(I2) adducts of hexamethonium dihalides are pre‐organized to respond dynamically to heating and reach a functional structure that favors the formation of the poorly stable and virtually unknown [I2Br2]2− and [I2Cl2]2− tetrahalides which could not be obtained in solution (see picture). The cavity‐directed reactivity affords new opportunities for synthesis and interconversion of polyhalogen anions.
