Abstract

The title compound has been prepared by the addition of bromocalix[4]arene methyl ether to CuCN in N-methylpyrrolidone. The crystals belong to the monoclinic space groupP21/n witha=13.591(3),b=24.778(5),c=11.057(3)Å,β=93.58(2)°, andD c=1.09 g cm−3 forZ=4. Refinement based on 1118 observed reflections led to a finalR value of 0.085. The molecule exhibits the partial cone conformation.
