“…1c,15c,18 Furthermore, it was shown that suitable alcohol molecules can be integrated into the hexameric structure by replacing some of the water molecules. 19 The guest exchange is overall facile and is believed to occur through a pentameric intermediate via dissociation of one resorcin [4]arene subunit. 20 Like in similar systems, the guest encapsulation can be analyzed via 1 H NMR spectroscopy, taking advantage of the aromatic anisotropy of the cavity walls, and via NOESY and DOSY ex- Intrigued by the good encapsulation of tertiary amines, the Tiefenbacher group recently discovered the Brønsted acidic character of the resorcin [4]arene hexamer.…”
