Halogen Bonds Formed between Substituted Imidazoliums and N Bases of Varying N-Hybridization

Heterodimers are constructed containing imidazolium and its halogen-substituted derivatives as Lewis acid. N in its sp3, sp2 and sp hybridizations is taken as the electron-donating base. The halogen bond is strengthened in the Cl < Br < I order, with the H-bond generally similar in mag...
