Te⋯I secondary-bonding interactions in crystals containing tellurium(ii), tellurium(iv) and iodide atoms: supramolecular aggregation patterns, nature of the non-covalent interactions and energy considerations

Abstract

This study delves into the intriguing realm of chalcogen-bonding interactions, specifically focusing on tellurium(II) and tellurium(IV) interactions with iodide species within six crystals. Utilising comprehensive computational chemistry calculations and underpinned...
