The formation of co-crystals based upon 1,4-diiodoperchlorobenzene (C6I2Cl4) as a halogen bond donor along with a series of isomeric pyridine vinyl esters, namely (E)-methyl-3-(pyridine-X-yl)prop-2-enoate (where X = 4, 3, and 2) (4-PAMe), (3-PAMe), and (2-PAMe), has been achieved. In all cases, C6I2Cl4 halogen bonds to a combination of pyridine nitrogen atoms as well as ester oxygen atoms to yield an extended solid. The co-crystals (C6I2Cl4)•(4-PAMe) and (C6I2Cl4)•2(3-PAMe) were observed to be photoreactive. X-ray structural analysis revealed that molecules of C6I2Cl4 are stacked in a homogeneous face-to-face π-π orientation which then positions a pair of carbon-carbon double bonds (C=C) in the correct orientation to undergo a solid-state [2 + 2] cycloaddition reaction. Thus, upon exposure to ultraviolet light, both (C6I2Cl4)•(4-PAMe) and (C6I2Cl4)•2(3-PAMe) undergo a regioselective and quantitative photoreaction to yield the head-to-head photoproduct, namely (rctt)-dimethyl-3,4-bis(pyridin-4-yl)cyclobuta...
