Abstract:The halogen bond (XB) is a noncovalent interaction involving a halogen acting as electrophile and a Lewis base. In the last decades XB has found practical application in several fields. Nevertheless, despite the pivotal role of noncovalent interactions in separation science, investigations of XB in this field are still in their infancy, and so far a limited number of studies focusing on solid phase extraction, liquid-liquid microextraction, liquid-phase chromatography, and gas chromatography separation have be… Show more
“…Moreover, in principle, halogens can also act as HB acceptors through the electron density located on the belt around the σ-hole region (Fig. 3b) [6]. Nevertheless, in compounds 1-7, other more negative regions are present with better capability as HB acceptors.…”

“…XB is a noncovalent interaction occurring between a Lewis base (XB acceptor) and an electropositive region (the so-called σ-hole) located on bound halogens (XB donors) [31]. In our previous studies, we demonstrated by chromatographic and computational analyses that the carbonyl oxygens of Amy-3,5-diMe and cellulose-3,5-diMe are able as Lewis bases to form XBs with the electrophilic σ-hole regions of halogen substituents (XB donors) bound to the 4,4'-bipyridine rings [6,20,26]. Moreover, in principle, halogens can also act as HB acceptors through the electron density located on the belt around the σ-hole region (Fig.…”

“…The polysaccharide phenylcarbamate is arranged in a high-ordered secondary structure forming grooves and ravines containing both polar and hydrophobic regions which accommodate and discriminate enantiomers through an elevated number of noncovalent interaction options (Fig. 1a) [4][5][6]. The supramolecular structure of polysaccharide-based selectors impacts their chiral recognition ability, and for this rea son, the preparation of the CSP is a critical step [1,3].…”

“…More specifically, it is interesting to note that the use of MeOH was unfavourable for retention and selectivity of the halogenated compounds 5 (2'-R = iodine) and 7 (hexachlorinated), and for retention of 6 (2'-R = H). This negative effect on retention and selectivity was expected due to the interaction of MeOH with the carbonyl oxygens of the polysaccharide selectors, thus competing with the XBs which underlie interaction between halogenated 4,4'-bipyridines and these carbonyl oxygens [6].…”

The chromatographic performances of four coated and immobilized amylose phenylcarbamate-based chiral columns were evaluated and compared under normal phase (NP) elution conditions by using chiral 4,4'-bipyridine derivatives as analytes. n-Hexane/2-propanol 90:10 and n-hexane/2-propanol/methanol 90:5:5 mixtures were employed as mobile phases (MPs), and the effect of adding methanol in the MP on retention and selectivity was considered. The effect of temperature on retention and selectivity was also evaluated, and overall thermodynamic parameters associated with the analyte adsorption onto the CSP surface were derived from van't Hoff plots. Interesting cases of enantiomer elution order (EEO) reversal, which are dependent on the nature of polar modifier, analyte structure, column-type, and temperature, were observed. The impact of substitution pattern and electronic properties of analytes and selectors on the separation behaviour was investigated by correlating chromatographic parameters and molecular properties determined by using density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Both coated and immobilized amylose tris(3,5-dimethylphenylcarbamate) columns allowed for the baseline enantioseparation (2.0 ≤ R S ≤ 4.9) of all 4,4'-bipyridines considered in this study. These results appear particularly useful because both enantiomers of these 4,4'-bipyridine derivatives are currently under investigation as new inhibitors of transthyretin fibrillogenesis, a biochemical phenomenon which is implicated to cause amyloid diseases.

“…Compared with SBE and SBE/C before Eosin Y adsorption, the FTIR peaks of SBE and SBE/C after Eosin Y adsorption decreased or disappeared at 1,705, 1,630, 1,034, 2,923, and 2,854 cm −1 (Figure ), which was caused by the adsorption of Eosin Y. It is worth noting that Eosin Y and two adsorbents both have oxygenated functional groups and aromatic rings, and Eosin Y also contains C‐Br bond, which creates the conditions for hydrogen bonding (Huang, Bin, Bu, Jiang, & Zeng, 2011), halogen bonding (Peluso et al., 2019), and π‐π interaction (Wan et al., 2019). The view was also supported by FTIR spectrum.…”
The environmentally friendly clay/carbon composite (SBE/C) was prepared by onestep pyrolysis under N 2 atmosphere at 700°C of spent bleaching earth (SBE) from the industrial waste of the refined oil industry. SBE/C was tested to remove anionic dye Eosin Y from aqueous water. The results revealed that SBE/C had larger specific surface area than SBE, and the equilibrium adsorption capacity of SBE/C (11.15 mg/g) was about 3 times than that of SBE (4.04 mg/g). The adsorption process was found to be exothermic and spontaneous. The adsorption capacity of SBE/C was independent on pH (5-12), and exhibits satisfactorily recyclable performance. Combined with characterization analysis, the adsorption mechanism likely includes electrostatic interaction, hydrogen bonding, hydrophobic interaction, halogen bonding, and π-π interaction. Overall, this exploration of SBE/C might open a window to the design of an efficient and low-cost adsorbent for Eosin Y dye elimination from wastewater.
In the last decade, biological processes involving halogen bond (HaB) as a leading interaction attracted great interest. However, although bound iodine atoms are considered powerful HaB donors, few iodinated new drugs were reported so far. Recently, iodinated 4,4’‐bipyridines showed interesting properties as HaB donors in solution and in the solid state. In this paper, a study on the inhibition activity of seven halogenated 4,4’‐bipyridines against malignant melanoma (MM) cell proliferation is described. Explorative dose/response proliferation assays were first performed with three 4,4’‐bipyridines by using four MM cell lines and the normal BJ fibroblast cell line as control. Among them, the A375 MM cell line was the most sensitive, as determined by MTT assays, which was selected to evaluate the antiproliferative activity of all 4,4’‐bipyridines. Significantly, the presence of an electrophilic iodine impacted the biological activity of the corresponding compounds. The 3,3’,5,5’‐tetrachloro‐2‐iodo‐4,4’‐bipyridine showed significant antiproliferation activity against the A375 cell line, and lower toxicity on BJ fibroblasts. Through in silico studies, the stereoelectronic features of possible sites determining the bioactivity were explored. These results pave the way for the utilization of iodinated 4,4’‐bipyridines as templates to design new promising HaB‐enabled inhibitors of MM cell proliferation.
