Crystal structure of 3,14-diethyl-2,6,13,17-tetra-azoniatri-cyclo-[16.4.0.0^7,12]docosane tetra-chloride tetra-hydrate from synchrotron X-ray data.

ABSTRACT: The crystal structure of the hydrated title salt, C₂₂H₄₈N₄ ⁴⁺·4Cl^-·4H₂O (C₂₂H₄₈N₄ = H₄ L = 3,14-diethyl-2,6,13,17-tetra-azoniatri-cyclo-[16.4.0.0^7,12]doco-sa-ne), has been determined using synchrotron radiation at 220 K. The structure determination reveals that protonation has occurred at all four amine N atoms. The asymmetric unit comprises one half of the macrocyclic cation (completed by crystallographic inversion symmetry), two chloride anions and two water mol-ecules. The macrocyclic ring of the tetra-cation adopts an exodentate (3,4,3,4)-D conformation. The crystal structure is stabilized by inter-molecular hydrogen bonds involving the macrocycle N-H g
