Abstract
The crystal structure of the 2:1 1, 6-diamino-hexane: para-H-calix-4-arene-25, 27-di-phosphonate complex was examined. The analysis showed a designed encapsulation of a calix-arene dimer within a three-dimensional matrix formed by the diamine molecules. It was also found that the slight mismatch in the length of the diamine molecules compared to the size of the calix-arene molecule was compensated by chain folding in the diamine.
