Anion-controlled assemble of C–H⋯X hydrogen bonded helical tubes or catemers by crescent imidazolium salts

Abstract

A series of 1-acetamido-3-(2-pyrimidyl)-imidazolium salts with different anions (Br (1), NO3 (2), PF6 (3) and BF4 (4)) have been synthesized and characterized using single crystal X-ray diffraction. The crescent imidazolium moieties provide rich C–H donors and serve as building blocks to either convergently form helical tubes with Br and NO3, or divergently form 1-D catemers with PF6 and BF4 anions.
