Comparative Structural Study of Three Tetrahalophthalic Anhydrides: Recognition of X···O(anhydride) Halogen Bond and πh···O(anhydride) Interaction

Structures of three tetrahalophthalic anhydrides (TXPA: halogen = Cl (TCPA), Br (TBPA), I (TIPA)) were studied by X-ray diffraction, and several types of halogen bonds (HaB) and lone pair···π-hole (lp···πh) contacts were revealed in their structures. HaBs involving the central oxygen atom of anhydri...
