Abstract
The shallow cavity of resorcarene is extended at the wide rim by a cyclic hydrogen-bonded array of four halide ions and four ammonium groups. Depending on the anion (chloride, bromide) these structures are capable of complexing certain alcohols by the formation of hydrogen bonds and inclusion into the π-basic cavity of the resorcarene (see picture).

- 7 Crystallographic data measurements were carried out at 173.0(2) K on a Kappa-CCD diffractometer using MoKα radiation (graphite monochromator, λ=0.7107 Å). Direct methods (G. M. Sheldrick, Acta Crystallogr. Sect. A 1990, 46, 467) and full-matrix-block refinement versus F 2 ( G. M. Sheldrick, SHELXL-97, Programm for the Refinement of Crystal Structures, Universität Göttingen, Germany, 1997) were used to solve the structure. The disordered parts of the butyl chains and one water molecule with partial occupancy were treated isotropically. No absorption correction was applied.

- 11 The inverse ratio of 4:1 was observed for these signals with [Et3NH+Br−]:[1 c4+⋅4 Cl−]=1:1.
- 12 This result is also in accordance with the fact that no interaction occurs between the acetonitrile molecule and 1 c4+⋅4 Cl− in CDCl3.
