Faraday Discuss. 2017 Oct 13;203:485-507. doi: 10.1039/c7fd00199a.
The role of the closing lecture in a Faraday Discussion is to summarise the contributions made to the Discussion over the course of the meeting and in so doing capture the main themes that have arisen. This article is based upon my Closing Remarks Lecture at the 203 Faraday Discussion meeting on Halogen Bonding in Supramolecular and Solid State Chemistry, held in Ottawa, Canada, on 10-12 July, 2017. The Discussion included papers on fundamentals and applications of halogen bonding in the solid state and solution phase. Analogous interactions involving main group elements outside group 17 were also examined. In the closing lecture and in this article these contributions have been grouped into the four themes: (a) fundamentals, (b) beyond the halogen bond, (c) characterisation, and (d) applications. The lecture and paper also include a short reflection on past work that has a bearing on the Discussion.
闭幕演讲在 Faraday 讨论中扮演着总结会议过程中做出的贡献，并以此捕捉出现的主要主题的角色。本文基于我在 2017 年 7 月 10 日至 12 日于加拿大渥太华举行的 203 届 Faraday 讨论会上关于超分子和固态化学中卤键的演讲。该讨论包括有关卤键在固态和溶液相中的基础和应用的论文。还研究了涉及第 17 族以外的主族元素的类似相互作用。在闭幕演讲和本文中，这些贡献被分为四个主题：（a）基础，（b）超越卤键，（c）特性，和（d）应用。演讲和论文还包括对过去与讨论有关的工作的简短反思。
