Abstract
Diaza-18-crown-6 (1,4,10,13-tetraoxa-7,16-diaza-cyclo-octadecane) selectively precipitates as a 1,4-dihydroxybenzene-complex from a mixture of isomeric phenols and as a 2,6-dihydroxynapthalene-complex from mixtures of isomeric diols. These selective precipitations are discussed in terms of structure and solubility of the host-guest complexes and phenol acidity. The crystal structures of diaza-18-crown-6 with guestsp-nitrophenol (2: 1), 2,4-dinitroaniline (2: 1), 5,5-diethylbarbituric acid (2: 1), salicylaldoxime (2: 1) and 1,4-dihydroxybut-2-yne (1: 1) are reported.
