Inclusion Properties and Crystal Structure of Clathrates Constructed Based on “π-sandwich”

Abstract

Inclusion behavior of structurally similar host compounds, 1,4-bis[1-(9-anthryl)-3-propen-1-on-3-yl]benzene (1) and 1,4-bis[3-(9-anthryl)-3-propen-1-on-1-yl]benzene (2), has been studied. Both hosts preferred cyclic, non-branched small molecules as a guest component, to yield 1:2 clathrates specifically. X-ray powder diffraction studies revealed that those 1:2 clathrates of 1 and 2 were respectively isostructural.
