The make use of non-covalent interactions in the discovery of new liquid crystalline (LC)
materials has been a field of increasing concern. From a scientific point of view, halogen …

Non-covalent interactions have gained increasing attention for use as a driving force to
fabricate various supramolecular architectures, exhibiting great potential in crystal and …

Halogen bonding is emerging as a significant driving force for supramolecular self-assembly
and has aroused great interest during the last two decades. Among the various halogen …

Owing to their dynamic attributes, non‐covalent supramolecular interactions have enabled a
new paradigm in the design and fabrication of multifunctional material systems with …

Currently, numerous articles have reported pyridine-based thermotropic mesogens;
however, reviews of their synthetic methodologies are rare. Therefore, the present critical …

Biocatalysis has become a powerful alternative for green chemistry. Expanding the range of
amino acids used in protein biosynthesis can improve industrially appealing properties such …

We demonstrate that halogen bonding (XB) can offer a novel approach for the construction
of photoresponsive ionic liquid crystals. In particular, we assembled two new …

A series of 4-cyano-4′-alkoxybiphenyl compounds were synthesized by varying the spacer
chain lengths (− CH2−) n, where n= 3–10, for the systematic study of a halogen-bonded (XB) …

We report halogen‐bonded complexes between 1‐polyfluoroalkyl‐3‐alkylimidazolium
iodides and mono‐iodoperfluoroalkanes of different chain lengths or di …

Co-crystallization frequently employs forces such as hydrogen bonds, halogen bonds, and π-
π stacking to assemble molecules in a multi-component crystal. In an effort to increase the …
