Abstract
Crown amide (1) forms a stoicheiometric 1:1 inclusion complex with water, the X-ray crystal structure of which is reported. Crystals of1 · H2O are triclinic, space groupP1, witha=7.503(1),b=11.394(3),c=13.443(2) Å, α=107.066(18), β=96.627(10), γ=106.377(14)°, andZ=2.R F =0.039 for 1697 MoKα reflections [I>3σ(I)] measured at 24°C. The structure features a hydrogen bonded hostguest relationship with concrete1 · H2O units. Hydrogen bonds are between the water oxygen and O(4), N(4), respectively. The crystal packing shows a cavity arrangement of four ligands around each water molecule.
