This effect is demonstrated in the present work through investigation of the InX3\/mebta reaction system in CHCl3 under refluxing conditions (X = Br, I; mebta = 1-methylbenzotriazole). Use of \u201cold\u201d batches of CHCl3 (i.e., containing COCl2, HCl, and H2O) has provided access to complexes [InCl2.1Br0.9(mebta)(H2O)2] (1; X = Br) and [InCl3(mebta)(H2O)2] (2; X = I) in rather low yields, governed by the percentage of impurities in the solvent. It was evident that the chlorido ligand is produced from the neutralization of HCl by mebta, the former arising either directly from the slow photochemical autoxidation of CHCl3 or indirectly from the hydrolysis of phosgene, the other product of the oxidative decomposition of the solvent. The mechanistic proposal involves an X-bridged [In2X6] dimer (X = Br, I) as the key intermediate, followed by the preferential chloride attack at one of its electrophilic InIII centers. This mechanistic proposal is fully supported by theoretical studies in CHCl3 in the case of X = I (complex 2). Use of noncontaminated (\u201cfresh\u201d) solvent has led to the isolation of complexes [InBr3(mebta)2(H2O)]\u00b7H2O (3\u00b7H2O) when the starting material is InBr3 and [InI3(mebta)2] (4) when the reactant is InI3. Complexes 2 and 3\u00b7H2O are mononuclear octahedral. The trans donor atom pairs in 2 are Oaqua\/Nmebta, Cl\/Oaqua, and Cl\/Cl, while they are Nmebta\/Nmebta, Oaqua\/Br, and Br\/Br in 3\u00b7H2O. The molecular structure of 1 is similar to that of 2, the main difference being the occupancy of the three halido sites by both Cl\u2013 and Br\u2013 ligands; thus, the former is a solid solution. In 4, the InIII center is surrounded by three terminal iodido groups and two monodentate mebta ligands. The five donor atoms define an almost perfect trigonal bipyramid, in which the three iodido groups are in the equatorial position. In all the complexes, the mebta ligand is planar and monodentate, with the donor atom being the nitrogen of the position 3 of the azole ring. The crystal structures of the complexes are built with a variety of H-bonding and \u03c0\u2013\u03c0 stacking interactions. The solid-state IR and Raman spectra of the complexes are discussed in terms of their structural features. An attempt has been made to probe the solution behavior of the compounds using 1H and 13C NMR spectra, combined with molar conductivity data.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1021\/acsomega.6c06963","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,8,14]],"date-time":"2026-08-14T20:01:11Z","timestamp":1786737671000},"page":"50483-50498","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Chloroform as Source\nof Chlorido Ligands in Coordination\nChemistry: A Case Study"],"prefix":"10.1021","volume":"11","author":[{"given":"Christina","family":"Stamou","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Patras , , ,","place":["Patras, Greece, 26504"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8775-5427","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Catherine P.","family":"Raptopoulou","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Nanoscience and Nanotechnology, NCSR \u201cDemokritos\u201d , ,","place":["Aghia Paraskevi Attikis, Greece, 15310"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Faidonas-Angelos P.","family":"Tsapalis","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Patras , , ,","place":["Patras, Greece, 26504"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0003-3451-2266","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Evangelos G.","family":"Bakalbassis","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Aristotle University of Thessaloniki , , ,","place":["Thessaloniki, Greece, 54124"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0425-2235","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Athanassios C.","family":"Tsipis","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Ioannina , , , ,","place":["Ioannina, Ioannina, Greece, 45110"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5845-4134","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Dionissios","family":"Papaioannou","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Patras , , ,","place":["Patras, Greece, 26504"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1280-3199","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Vassilis","family":"Psycharis","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Nanoscience and Nanotechnology, NCSR \u201cDemokritos\u201d , ,","place":["Aghia Paraskevi Attikis, Greece, 15310"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3378-6228","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Spyros P.","family":"Perlepes","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Patras , , ,","place":["Patras, Greece, 26504"]},{"name":"Institute of Chemical Engineering Sciences, Foundation for Research and Technology-Hellas (FORTH\/ICE-HT) , Platani , P.O.
