Abstract

4-Phenoxyphenol crystallises to yield discrete ∼60 Å³ cavities that are capable of enclathrating small solvent molecules; the cavities are capped by constricted 6-membered hydrogen-bonded rings and these potential apertures do not appear to facilitate gated porosity when the material is subjected to static CO₂ pressure.
