Supramolecular crystalline complexes involving bulky hydroxy hosts: X-ray structure analysis of inclusion compounds with acetone and toluene

摘要

The structures of two solid inclusion compounds formed between roof-shaped diarylmethanol-substituted 9,10-dihydro- 9,10-ethanoanthracene hosts, 1 and 2, acetone or toluene, 1. Acetone (2:1) and 2. Toluene (1:1), were investigated by single-crystal x-ray analysis. Both compounds crystallize in the monoclinic system, although in different space groups [C2/c for 1. Acetone (2:1) and P2_1 for 2. Toluene (1:1)].
