“…Hence, variation of the number of pendant aromatic rings permits a good degree of control over the interplay of potential OFF and EF interactions. This represents a further extension of the design principles pioneered by Weber for the synthesis of new multiring aryl host molecules …”

The dibromodiquinoline derivative 2 yields crystalline lattice inclusion compounds with a wide range of guest molecules. The solvent-free crystal structure is also formed. In all these, pairs of dibromodiquinoline molecules form centrosymmetric bricklike dimers by means of three different aromatic edge-face (EF) interactions. The resultant (EF) 6 building blocks, which are virtually identical across the series of 13 crystal structures described, act as tectons that pack into layers. Guest molecules occupy interlayer spaces near the corners of the tectons, with the host-guest attractions acting as molecular mortar and allowing variation of the inclusion structures dependent on guest size, shape, and functionality. The apohost crystal structure demonstrates that guest-free packing of these molecular bricks (analogous to the dry stone construction method) is also favorable. The molecular substitution of a dibromodiquinoline unit required to ensure dimeric (EF) 6 tecton formation is explained.

“…The molecules 31 and 32 are representatives of the aromatic hydrocarbon host family that has been extensively developed and studied by Weber and coworkers over recent years [52][53][54][55]. Such compounds contain a number of aromatic planes with differing relative orientations that result in an awkwardly shaped molecular structure.…”
