The chalcogen bond (ChB) is a noncovalent interaction based on electrophilic features of regions of electron charge density depletion (σ-holes) located on bound atoms of group VI.

Molecular Tuning of the Magnetic Response in Organic Semiconductors [PDF]
The tunability of high-mobility organic semi-conductors (OSCs) holds great promise for molecular spintronics. In this study, we show this extreme variability - and therefore potential tunability - of the molecular gyromagnetic coupling ("g-") tensor with

The crystal structures of a series of tetracyanonaphthoquinodimethanes fused with a selenadiazole or thiadiazole ring revealed that their molecular packing is determined mainly by two intermolecular interactions: chalcogen bond (ChB) and weak hydrogen ...

Local motifs in GeS$_2$-Ga$_2$S$_3$ glasses [PDF]
The structure of (GeS$_2$)$_{0.75}$(Ga$_2$S$_3$)$_{0.25}$ and (GeS$_2$)$_{0.83}$(Ga$_2$S$_3$)$_{0.17}$ glasses was investigated by Raman scattering, high energy X-ray diffraction and extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) measurements at the Ga

Chalcogen–chalcogen secondary bonding interactions in trichalcogenaferrocenophanes
The solid-state structures of all members in the series of trichalcogenaferrocenophanes [FeIJC5H4E)2E′] (E, E′ = S, Se, Te) (1–9) have been explored to understand the trends in secondary bonding interactions (SBIs) between chalcogen elements sulfur, selenium, and tellurium.

The Origin of Chalcogen-Bonding Interactions [PDF]
Favorable molecular interactions between group 16 elements have been implicated in catalysis, biological processes, and materials and medicinal chemistry. Such interactions have since become known as chalcogen bonds by analogy to hydrogen and halogen bonds. Although the prevalence and applications of chalcogen-bonding interactions continues to develop,

Chalcogen Bonds Involving Selenium in Protein Structures [PDF]
Chalcogen bonds are the specific interactions involving group 16 elements as electrophilic sites. The role of chalcogen atoms as sticky sites in biomolecules is underappreciated, and the few available studies have mostly focused on S. Here, we carried out a statistical analysis over 3562 protein structures in the Protein Data Bank (PDB) containing 18 ...

The question of whether intermolecular interactions in crystals originate from localized atom...atom interactions or as a result of holistic molecule...molecule close packing is a matter of continuing debate.

While homodimeric prodrug assemblies can improve drug loading and limit toxicity in cancer therapy, bioactivation within the target site is limited. Here, the authors introduce a hybrid chalcogen bond linker to a docetaxel dimeric prodrug nanoassembly ...
