Chemical insight from crystallographic disorder-structural studies of supramolecular photochemical systems. Part 3.1 The β-cyclodextrin–7-hydroxy-4-methylcoumarin inclusion complex: direct observation of photodimerization by X-ray crystallography
Abstract
As part of an ongoing structural study of supramolecular photochemical β-cyclodextrin(β-CD)–coumarin derivatives systems the crystal structure of the β-CD–7-hydroxy-4-methylcoumarin complex has been determined for the unreacted crystal and for a crystal exposed to UV light for 6 days. The
