Halenium ions, X+, are particularly strong halogen-bond donors that interact with two Lewis
bases simultaneously to form linear [D··· X··· D]+-type halonium complexes. Their three …

Due to their electron deficiency, halonium ions act as particularly strong halogen bond
donors. By accepting electrons in both lobes of their empty p-orbital, they are capable of …

The halogen‐bonding interaction is one of the rising stars in supramolecular chemistry.
Although other weak interactions and their influence on the structure and chemistry of …

This review is focused on a special class of metal complexes where polyhalide units are
either coordinated to metal (“true polyhalide complexes”) or form specific associates with …

The position‐selective functionalization of the poorly reactive benzenoid nucleus of indoles
has remained a great challenge in organic chemistry. Here we describe a directing‐group …

Because of their anisotropic electron distribution and electron deficiency, halonium ions are
unusually strong halogen-bond donors that form strong and directional three-center, four …

This study delves into the intriguing realm of chalcogen-bonding interactions, specifically
focusing on tellurium (II) and/or tellurium (IV) interactions with iodide species within six …

The reactivity of halonium ions is conveniently modulated by three-center, four-electron
halogen bonds. Such stabilized halonium complexes are valuable reagents for oxidations …

This review summarizes recent advances in the coordination chemistry of organotellurium
halides with an emphasis on the special features of the coordination patterns of the …

The clusters here discussed represent improvements to our preparative techniques directed
toward the synthesis of ternary nanoclusters of the type MM′ Te. Hg (TeR) 2 (R=(2, 6 …
