The complexation and separation of industrially important <i>cis</i>- and <i>trans</i>-1,2-dichloroethene (<i>cis</i>- and <i>trans</i>-DCE) isomers using perethylated pillar[5]arene (EtP5) are described. EtP5 exhibits considerable binding capability for the <i>trans</i>-DCE isomer over the <i>cis</i>-DCE in organic solution. Furthermore, nonporous adaptive crystals (NACs) of EtP5 can efficiently separate <i>trans</i>-DCE from a 50 : 50 (v/v) <i>cis</i>/<i>trans</i>-isomer mixture. ...[more]
