Binding of an acetonitrile molecule inside the ethereal cavity of a hexaarylbenzene-based receptor via a synergy of C–H⋯O/C–H⋯π interactions

Abstract

A pair of hexaarylbenzene-based receptors, which contain a circular, as well as a partially-broken, ethereal fence around the central benzene ring, bind acetonitrile molecules via a synergy of C–H⋯O and C–H⋯π interactions, as probed by X-ray crystallography.
