Description
Summary:The synthesis, and spectroscopic and structural characterization of bridged dicationic derivatives of benzo-2,1,3-selenadiazoles are reported. The chloride salt of [H 4 C 6 NSeN-CH 2 -CH 2 -NSeNC 6 H 4 ] 2+ crystallizes forming a macrocyclic structure in which two cations are bridged by Se Cl chalcogen bonds (ChBs), with a third chloride at the centre of the macrocycle. The structure of [1,2-(H 4 C 6 NSeN) 2 -C 6 H 10 ]Cl 2 consists of two selenadiazolium cations linked by a chiral cyclohexane and capped by Se Cl ChBs. Tetrafluoroborate salts of a xylene bridge crystallize in two pseudopolymorphs in which the cations form Se F ChBs in an anti - or syn -conformation. The triflate salt of ethylene-bridged cations dimerizes through the formation of the [Se-N] 2 supramolecular synthon with Se O ChBs capping the second selenium atom. In contrast, [H 4 C 6 NSeN-CH 2 -CH 2 -CH 2 -NSeNC 6 H 4 ](CF 3 SO 3 ) 2 only forms Se O ChBs. A variety of supramolecular structures is formed by selenadiazolium cations linked by hydrocarbon bridges.
