Figure 41. Cryptand-like receptor 85 and crystal structures of its dichloroacetate anion complex.

Figure 41

(A) Molecular structure of receptor 85.

(B) Top view of the crystal structure of the complex [(CHCl2COO)3]3− ⊂ [H385]3+.

(C) Side view of the crystal structure of the complex [(CHCl2COO)3]3− ⊂ [H385]3+.

All anions encapsulated within the cavity are shown in space-filling form. Color code: C = grey, N = blue, O = red and Cl = green. Solvent molecules outside the cavities are omitted for clarity.
