It is not a coincidence that both chirality and noncovalent interactions are ubiquitous in
nature and synthetic molecular systems. Noncovalent interactivity between chiral molecules …

In the last few decades,“unusual” noncovalent interactions like anion‐π and halogen
bonding have emerged as interesting alternatives to the ubiquitous hydrogen bonding in …

Halogen bonding, the noncovalent interaction based on electrophilic halogen substituents,
features very interesting properties, as illustrated by numerous applications continuously …

The halogen bond occurs when there is evidence of a net attractive interaction between an
electrophilic region associated with a halogen atom in a molecular entity and a nucleophilic …

Supramolecular chemistry is “the chemistry of the intermolecular bond, covering the
structures and functions of the entities formed by association of two or more chemical …

The study of the complexation of anions, from its beginnings in the late 1960s and 1970s,(1-
3) has moved on from being an area solely of academic interest to a fundamental pillar of …

The research on 1, 2, 3-triazoles has been lively and ever-growing since its stimulation by
the advent of click chemistry. The attractiveness of 1H-1, 2, 3-triazoles and their derivatives …

Non‐covalent molecular interactions on the basis of halogen and chalcogen bonding
represent a promising, powerful catalytic activation mode. However, these “unusual” non …

In contrast to hydrogen bonding, which is firmly established in organocatalysis, there are still
very few applications of halogen bonding in this field. Herein, we present the first catalytic …

Chalcogen bonding (ChB) is the non‐covalent interaction occurring between chalcogen
atoms as Lewis acid sites and atoms or groups of atoms able to behave as Lewis bases …
