Abstract

A supramolecular host-guest system based on heterocalix[8]arene 1, incorporating benzimidazol-2-one and 2-methoxy-5-tert-butyl-1,3-phenylene subunits in an alternate cyclic arrangement, has been studied. The crystal structures of two solvent endo/exo inclusion complexes formed from the host molecule 1 and 3-methylpyridine in hydrated and unhydrated forms demonstrate the influence of crystal packing on the shape of the host molecule.
