  2. Halogen bond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halogen_bond

    A halogen bond is almost collinear with the halogen atom's other, conventional bond, but the geometry of the electron-charge donor may be much more complex.. Multi-electron donors such as ethers and amines prefer halogen bonds collinear with the lone pair and donor nucleus.

  3. Halogen - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halogen

    For aliphatic carbon-halogen bonds, the C-F bond is the strongest and usually less chemically reactive than aliphatic C-H bonds. The other aliphatic-halogen bonds are weaker, their reactivity increasing down the periodic table. They are usually more chemically reactive than aliphatic C-H bonds. As a consequence, the most common halogen ...

  4. Octet rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Octet_rule

    The bonding in carbon dioxide (CO 2): all atoms are surrounded by 8 electrons, fulfilling the octet rule.. The octet rule is a chemical rule of thumb that reflects the theory that main-group elements tend to bond in such a way that each atom has eight electrons in its valence shell, giving it the same electronic configuration as a noble gas.

  5. Molecular solid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molecular_solid

    The halogen bonding between the bromine and 1,4-dioxane molecules partially guides the organization of the crystal lattice structure. [27] (a) A lewis dot structure and ball and stick model of bromine and 1,4-dioxane. The halogen bond is between the bromine and 1,4-dioxane.

  6. Hypervalent molecule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypervalent_molecule

    Relative bond strengths in pentacoordinated silicon compounds. In A, the Si-O bond length is 1.749Å and the Si-I bond length is 3.734Å; in B, the Si-O bond lengthens to 1.800Å and the Si-Br bond shortens to 3.122Å, and in C, the Si-O bond is the longest at 1.954Å and the Si-Cl bond the shortest at 2.307A. [28]

  7. Iodine compounds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iodine_compounds

    Structure of iodine pentoxide. Iodine oxides are the most stable of all the halogen oxides, because of the strong I–O bonds resulting from the large electronegativity difference between iodine and oxygen, and they have been known for the longest time. [11]

  8. Halogenation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halogenation

    In chemistry, halogenation is a chemical reaction which introduces one or more halogens into a chemical compound. Halide-containing compounds are pervasive, making this type of transformation important, e.g. in the production of polymers, drugs. [1]

  9. Interhalogen - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interhalogen

    Most interhalogens are halogen fluorides, and all but three (IBr, AtBr, and AtI) of the remainder are halogen chlorides. Chlorine and bromine can each bond to five fluorine atoms, and iodine can bond to seven. AX and AX 3 interhalogens can form between two halogens whose electronegativities are relatively close to one another. When ...
