Nitrogen in Supramolecular Chemistry: Understanding the Pervasive Role as Acceptor of Halogen, Chalcogen, Pnictogen and Tetrel Bonds

Nitrogen-centered Lewis bases are well established as nucleophiles in synthetic chemistry, as ligands in coordination chemistry and as pervasive components of hydrogen bonding in chemistry and structural biology. Their role as acceptors of halogen, chalcogen, pnictogen and tetrel bonds, collectively σ-hole interactio...
