CRYSTAL STRUCTURE OF p—PROPIONYLCALIX [4]ARENE

<正> The title compound was synthesized by Friedel-Crafts reaction of tetrahydroxycalix [4] arene and propionyl choride, and its crystal structure was determined by X-ray diffraction technique. C10O8H40,Mr = 648. 75, triclinic, space group P1 with cell parameters, a = 9. 930(5), b = 11. 838(3), c=14. 522(7) A,α= 94. 92(3),β=102. 96(4),γ= 98. 32(3)°, V = 1635A3, Z = 2, Dc = 1. 399g/ cm3, μ(CuKa) = 3. 27cm-1, F (000) = 344. The final R = 0. 075, Rw = 0.092 for 5716 independent reflections with I>3σ(I). The crystal structure analysis shows that the molecule exists in fine cone conformation.
