The Origin of Chalcogen-Bonding Interactions [PDF]
Journal of the American Chemical Society, 2017 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]
ACS Chemical Biology, 2021 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 ...

Catalysis with Chalcogen Bonds
Angewandte Chemie International Edition, 2016 AbstractHerein, we introduce catalysts that operate with chalcogen bonds. Compared to conventional hydrogen bonds, chalcogen bonds are similar in strength but more directional and hydrophobic, thus ideal for precision catalysis in apolar solvents. For the transfer hydrogenation of quinolines and imines, rate enhancements well beyond a factor of 1000 ...

The Nature of Strong Chalcogen Bonds Involving Chalcogen‐Containing Heterocycles
Angewandte Chemie International Edition, 2020 AbstractChalcogen bonds are σ hole interactions and have been used in recent years as an alternative to hydrogen bonds. In general, the electrostatic potential at the chalcogen atom and orbital delocalization effects are made responsible for the orientation of the chalcogen bond. Here, we were able to show by means of SAPT calculations that neither the

Anion Transport with Chalcogen Bonds
Journal of the American Chemical Society, 2016 In this report, we introduce synthetic anion transporters that operate with chalcogen bonds. Electron-deficient dithieno[3,2-b;2',3'-d]thiophenes (DTTs) are identified as ideal to bind anions in the focal point of the σ holes on the cofacial endocyclic sulfur atoms.

Structural Features of Chalcogen Bonds and Weak Interactions Involving Chalcogens
, 2023 The structural features of chalcogen bonding (ChB) interactions in linear fragments R–Ch⋯Nu (Ch = S, Se, Te; R = C, N, O, S, Se, Te; Nu = N, O, S, Se, Te, F, Cl, Br, I) involving Ch⋯Nu distances shorter than the sum of relevant van der Waals (vdW) radii are reviewed.
