The effects on the C-I⋅⋅N halogen bond between iodobenzene and NH3 of placing various substituents on the phenyl ring are monitored by quantum calculations. Substituents R=N(CH3 )2 , NH2 , CH3 , OCH3 , COCH3 , Cl, F, COH, CN, and NO2 were each placed ortho, meta, and para to the I. The depth of the σ-hole on I is deepened as R becomes more electron-withdrawing which is reflected in a strengthening of the halogen bond, which varied between 3.3 and 5.5 kcal mol-1 . In most cases, the ortho placement yields the largest perturbation, follo
