Abstract
En 中文
While carbon is ubiquitous across organic synthesis and materials chemistry; in supramolecular chemistry the role of carbon as a target for the formation of directional interactions; such as hydrogen or halogen bonds; is less known and developed in comparison to nitrogen or oxygen. Here we provide a highlight of the opportunities for the design of multi-component crystals (cocrystals) based on the recognition of carbon-based moieties; notably non-substituted polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs); functionalities bearing single carbon atom recognition sites such as isonitriles or carbenes; as well as the molecules of the element carbon itself; such as fullerenes; with particular emphasis on halogen bonding and C-H···π interactions. By discussing historical examples; as well as recent advances including applications oriented towards carbon nanomaterials; this article provides a perspective of carbon in the contexts of cocrystallisation and solid-state supramolecular chemistry; from fundamental research and materials design; to biomolecular recognition and extraterrestrial geology.
