Journal ArticleDOI
The Halogen Bond
Gabriella Cavallo,Pierangelo Metrangolo,Pierangelo Metrangolo,Roberto Milani,Tullio Pilati,Arri Priimagi,Giuseppe Resnati,Giancarlo Terraneo +7 more
TL;DR: The specific advantages brought up by a design based on the use of the halogen bond will be demonstrated in quite different fields spanning from material sciences to biomolecular recognition and drug design.
Journal ArticleDOI
Halogen Bonding in Supramolecular Chemistry
TL;DR: In this article, the energy and geometrical features of the interaction are described along with the atomic characteristics that confer molecules with the specific ability to interact through this interaction, and some principles are presented for crystal engineering based on halogen-bonding interactions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Halogen bonding: a general route in anion recognition and coordination
Gabriella Cavallo,Pierangelo Metrangolo,Tullio Pilati,Giuseppe Resnati,Maurizio Sansotera,Giancarlo Terraneo +5 more
TL;DR: This critical review describes how halocarbons can function as effective binding sites of anions via halogen bonding, the noncovalent interaction whereby halogen atoms accept electron density.
Journal ArticleDOI
Halogen bonding in halocarbon–protein complexes: a structural survey
TL;DR: The crystal structures presented here prove how halogen bonds can occur in biological systems and provide a class of highly directional stabilizing contacts that can be exploited in the process of rational drug design.
Journal ArticleDOI
