Abstract
The X-ray crystal structure of the new addition compound (12[ane]S-4.I -2)infinity, C8H16S4.I-2, is reported. The I-2 moieties bridge symmetr ically between thioether groups; the I-I and S ... I bond lengths of 2 .736(1) and 3.220(3) Angstrom, respectively, indicate relatively weak charge transfer The nature of the interaction has been probed by semi- empirical molecular-orbital calculations using the PM3 method.
