| description | The in situ crystallization is the most suitable way to obtain a crystal of a low-melting-point compound to determine its structure via X-Ray diffraction. Herein, the intermolecular interactions and some crystal properties of low-melting-point organoelement compounds (lattice energies, melting points, etc.) are discussed. The discussed structures were divided into two groups: organoelement compounds of groups 13−16 and organofluorine compounds with other halogen atoms (Cl, Br, I). The most of intermolecular interactions in the first group are represented by weak hydrogen bonds and H···H interactions. The crystal packing of the second group of compounds is stabilized by various interactions between halogen atoms in conjunction with hydrogen bonding and stacking interactions. The data on intermolecular interactions from the analysis of crystal packing allowed us to obtain correlations between lattice energies and Hirshfeld molecular surface areas, molecular volumes, and melting points. |
