Non-covalent interactions exert extraordinary influence over conformation and properties of a well-known supramolecular building block

At low pH, and in the presence of 4,4'-bipyridine, p-sulfonatocalix[4]arene crystallizes in the 1,3-alternate conformation rather than the expected cone conformation and exhibits remarkable stability.
