Abstract
Six structures of crystalline materials obtained via the self-assembly of a 1,3,5-triaroylbenzene (TAB) derivative peripherally functionalized with phenol residues ("sticky" groups) have been determined. Two general structural types were observed: highly symmetrical assemblies mediated by direct ArO-H⋯O=C hydrogen bonding (space group R3c) and extensively hydrated structures in which water molecules occupy bridging positions between phenol and carbonyl groups (space group P21/n). The former architecture accommodates included solvate molecules (EtOAc or H2O) within an interpenetrated α-Po type TAB network. In the case of the hydrate, water molecules do not appear to be involved in any intermolecular interactions despite excellent hydrogen-bonding ability. Structures of the latter type feature well-defined voids for guest enclathration (guest = acetone, EtOH, MeOH). The observed supramolecular interactions are discussed in the context of potential applications in crystal engineering. © 2006 American Chemical Society.
