The π‐Accepting Arene HAT(CN)₆ as a Halide Receptor through Charge Transfer: Multisite Anion Interactions and Self‐Assembly in Solution and the Solid State

Abstract

Sensibles Selbstorganisat: Ihre außergewöhnliche π-Elektronenakzeptorstärke macht die Titelverbindung zu einem exzellenten kolorimetischen Halogenidsensor. Neu daran ist, dass HAT(CN)6 mit Anionen multiple Wechselwirkungen (sowohl Charge-Transfer als auch Anion-π) in Lösung und im Festkörper eingeht. Die Halogenidionen bewirken die spontane Selbstorganisation der Sandwichkomplexe über η2,η2-Ladungstransferkontakte.
