Popis: Cocrystallization of diiodine with a series of heteroaromatic N-oxides produced three types of halogen-bonded associates: (a) alternating chains comprising I2 molecules bridged by oxygen atoms of N-oxides of pyridine, quinoline, or 4-methylpyridine; (b) discrete 2:1 complexes, in which diiodine links a pair of acridine N-oxide molecules; and (c) amphoteric 1:1 adducts, in which one end of each diiodine molecule is halogen-bonded to N-oxide of 4-methoxypyridine or 4-chloroquinoline, and another diiodine’s end forms contacts with the other I2 molecules. In all cases, halogen bonds between diiodine and N-oxides are characterized by nearly linear I–I···O angles, close to perpendicular dihedral C–N–O···I angles and N–O···I angles of about 110°. The halogen bond length in the 1:1 adducts is about 0.3 A shorter than those in the 2:1 associates and in the infinite chains. Computational analyses confirmed that the variations in I···O separations are related predominantly to the distinct effects of halogen bond com...
