Popis: We report halogen bonded complexes between 1 polyfluoroalkyl 3 alkylimidazolium iodides and mono iodoperfluoroalkanes of different chain lengths or di iodoperfluorooctane. 19F NMR analyses revealed that the preferred stoichiometry between the donors and acceptors is 1 amp; 8201; amp; 8201;1 in the cases of the mono iodoperfluoroalkanes, and 2 amp; 8201; amp; 8201;1 with di iodoperfluorooctane, as a result of the monodentate behavior of the iodide anion halogen bond acceptor . Single crystal X ray diffraction analyses showed the presence of a perfluorinated superanion, which interdigitates with the cation fluorinated chains, favoring the formation of lamellar structures. All of the obtained supramolecular complexes exhibit enantiotropic liquid crystalline phases over a broad range of temperatures. Most of the obtained complexes show melting points lower than 100 amp; 8201; C, two of them being liquid at room temperature, thus representing a new family of fluorinated ionic liquid crystals
