Description
Summary:The title compound, C(68)H(56)O(16), was synthesized as a novel synthetic inter-mediate towards deeper and more elaborate resorcin[4]arene cavitands. The structure is the first reported example of a resorcin[4]arene cavitand bearing aromatic aldehyde functional groups at the extra-annular rim of the mol-ecule. The 2-formyl-phen-oxy residues are found to assume two different orientations above the mol-ecular cavity. One half of the resorcin[4]arene cavitand mol-ecule appears in the asymmetric unit; the complete resorcin[4]arene cavitand structure was generated across a mirror plane. In addition, a highly disordered ethyl acetate solvent mol-ecule is present within the mol-ecular cavity.
