Article Synopsis
- The study explores halogen bonding as a tool in crystal engineering and investigates cocrystals formed from 3-iodoethynylpyridine and 3-iodoethynylbenzoic acid with halide salts.
- By utilizing mechanochemical ball milling, six new cocrystal structures were synthesized, all showing halogen bonds involving C≡C-I⋅⋅⋅X (where X is Cl or Br).
- The research highlights the differences in bonding behavior between pyridine and benzoic acid groups and uses solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) to analyze and confirm the presence of both halogen and hydrogen bonding in the cocrystals.
