The Bright Future of Unconventional σ/π-Hole Interactions

TL;DR: The physical nature of σ- and π-hole interactions is described, a selection of inquiries that utilise ρ- andπ-holes are presented, and an overview of analyses of structural databases (CSD/PDB) that demonstrate how prevalent these interactions already are in solid-state structures are given.

Non-covalent interactions in the synthesis of coordination compounds: Recent advances

TL;DR: In this paper, a review describes how non-covalent interactions, such as hydrogen (inter-and intramolecular, resonance-and charge-assisted hydrogen bonding), halogen, chalcogen and pnicogen bonds, π-interactions, as well as other types of weak forces can influence and control the reactions in the synthesis, providing a class of highly directional stabilizing contacts that can be exploited in the design of coordination compounds.

Chalcogen bonding in solution: interactions of benzotelluradiazoles with anionic and uncharged Lewis bases.

TL;DR: Determinations of the association constants of benzotelluradiazoles with a variety of Lewis bases (Cl(-), Br(-), I(-), NO3(-) and quinuclidine, in organic solvent) are described and trends in the free energy of chalcogen bonds upon variation of the donor, acceptor and solvent are evident.

Chalcogen Bonding Macrocycles and [2]Rotaxanes for Anion Recognition

TL;DR: It is demonstrated, by 1H NMR and DFT calculations, that the chalcogen atoms oriented within the macrocycle cavity are able to chelate copper(I) endotopically, and the first examples of mechanically interlocked [2]rotaxanes containing ChB-donor groups are prepared via an active metal template strategy.

Patterns in Hydrogen Bonding: Functionality and Graph Set Analysis in Crystals

TL;DR: In this article, a review of the most promising systematic approaches to resolving this enigma was initially developed by the late M. C. Etter, who applied graph theory to recognize, and then utilize, patterns of hydrogen bonding for the understanding and design of molecular crystals.
