Abstract
The crystal and molecular structure of Rebek's imide 1 is reported. Crystal data for 1: triclinic, space group \(P\overline 1 \), a = 7.8733(7) Å, b = 12.712(1) Å, c = 12.789(1) Å, α = 86.628(5)°, β = 84.628(5)°, γ = 72.981(5)°, V = 1217.9(2) Å3, and D c = 1.305 g/cm3 for Z = 2 and R = 0.047. The molecule crystallizes as a cyclic, hydrogen-bonded dimer held together by two N\( - -\)H...O and two O\( - -\)H...O hydrogen bonds involving amide...carboxylic acid interactions. The dimer organizes in the solid state to form 1D ribbons.
