N2 - A quarter of the unit cell volume of [{Ni(4,4'-dipy)(3- nitrobenzoate)2(MeOH)2}(n)], which crystallizes in the form of helices, is occupied by large chiral cavities (400-500 Å3). The cavities are capable of encapsulating not only single molecules, but also face-to-face dimers of nitrobenzene (see stick model). 4,4'-dipy = 4,4'-bipyridine.

The cavities are capable of encapsulating not only single molecules, but also face-to-face dimers of nitrobenzene (see stick model). 4,4'-dipy = 4,4'-bipyridine.
