Heterocyclic 1,3-diazepine-based thiones and selones as versatile halogen-bond acceptors

Abstract

Utilizing the N-heterocyclic chalcogenones hexahydro-1,3-bis(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)-2H-1,3-diazepine-2-thione (SDiazMesS) and hexahydro-1,3-bis(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)-2H-1,3-diazepine-2-selone (SDiazMesSe) as halogen-bond acceptors, 24 new cocrystals were prepared. The solid-state structures of the parent molecules were also determined, along with those of their acetonitrile solvates.
