title: Structural competition between halogen bonds and lone-pair···π interactions in solution.
abstract: Structural competition between halogen bonds and lone-pair···π interactions in solution is studied using (13)C NMR combined with density functional theory calculations. Among the halogen bonds considered, only the iodine bonds and a few bromine bonds are strong enough to compete successfully with the lone-pair···π interactions.
