Mit Donorzentren versehener korbförmiger Molekülhohlraum — Darstellung, Struktur, Eigenschaften

Abstract

Basket‐shaped Molecular Cavity‐Containing Donor Centres — Synthesis, Structure, Properties The macrocyclic basket‐shaped molecule 2 , composed of three 4‐donor‐substituted pyridine units, is synthesized by cyclisation of the chloromethyl compound 7 with sulfonamide 8 . The X‐ray structure analysis of 2 gives an impression of the shape of the molecular basket. Furthermore it demonstrates that the toluenesulfonamide residues interlink, creating dimeric units of 2 in the crystal.
