A neutral halogen bonding macrocyclic anion receptor based on a pseudocyclopeptide with three 5-iodo-1,2,3-triazole subunits†
Abstract
The converging arrangement of iodine atoms along its confined cavity causes a cyclic pseudopeptide with three 5-iodo-1,2,3-triazole subunits to interact with halides, in particular with chloride, in 2.5 vol% water/DMSO.
