The title 36H36N24O12·C8H14N22+·2I−·10H2O, displays a large ellipsoidal deformation of the cucurbit[6]uril (CB[6]) skeleton upon complex formation. The benzene ring of the cation is rotationally disordered between two orientations in a ratio of 3:1. The solvent H2O molecules form a hydrogen-bonded network by interaction with the carbonyl groups of CB[6] and the I− counterions. The crystal studied exhibited non-merohedral Both CB[6] and the cation are centrosymmetric.

Complex (I) was prepared by mixing cucurbit[6]uril with 1,4-xylylenediamine dihydrochloride in water according to the literature procedure (Freeman et al., 1981; Freeman, 1984; Liu et al., 2005) followed by the addition of KI. Single crystals suitable for
were obtained by allowing the aqueous solution of complex (I) to stand at room temperature for several days.The N- and C-bound H atoms were included in the riding-model approximation with N—H = 0.90 Å and C—H = 0.98 to 0.99 Å, and with Uiso(H) = 1.5Ueq(N) and Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C). The water H atoms were refined with soft restraints [O—H = 0.84 (3) Å, H—O—H = 105 (2)° in a riding model approximation, with Uiso(H) = 1.5Ueq(O). The benzene ring of the cation is rotationally disordered between two orientations in a ratio of 3:1. The highest residual peak (1.68 e Å-3) is located 0.95 Å from I1 atom and is due to either partial disorder of I1 atom or truncation effect. The crystal studied is non-merohedral twin consisting of two components (domains). The
law is 180° rotation around 100 reciprocal direction with approximate 7:1 domain ratio.Data collection: SMART (Bruker, 1999); cell

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes. |
Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger. The crystal is non-merohedral twin in about 7:1 ratio with 180° rotation around 100 reciprocal axis. |

In supramolecular chemistry of the cucurbit[n]uril family of molecular containers has expanded dramatically in recent years with the preparation of a homologous series of hosts (e.g. CB[n], n = 5, 6, 7, 8, 10), inverted CB[n], CB[n] derivatives and analogues, and most recently nor-seco-CB[n] (Lagona et al., 2005). The high affinity and high selectivity of CB[n]-type receptors toward their guests (Liu et al., 2005), most notably organic ammonium ions, has lead to their use in a variety of applications including molecular machines (Ko et al. 2007), drug delivery (Wheate et al. 2006), chemical sensors (Henning et al. 2007), self-assembled macromolecules (Moon & Kaifer, 2004; Rauwald & Scherman 2008), and recognition of biomolecules (Bush et al., 2005; Rekharsky et al. 2008).
The polycyclic nature of CB[n] molecular containers suggests that this class of molecules might be relatively rigid and have difficulty responding to the size and shape of its guests. There is evidence, however, that CB[n] molecular containers may undergo substantial deformations both in transition states for ingression and egression of guests and in the ground state of the corresponding host–guest complexes (Huang et al., 2007; Marquez et al., 2004; Samsonenko et al., 2002). This paper reports the X-ray crystal structure of complex (I) which exhibits such a deformation.
The asymmetric unit of complex (I) comprises one half of a CB[6] molecule and one half of a p-xylylenediammonium cation both disposed about a center of inversion, an iodide counterion and five water molecules. The majority of the structural features of complex (I) are as expected based on its molecular structure, but several deserve some comment. For example, the p-xylylenediammonium ions are held in the cavity of CB[6] by H-bonds to its ureidyl C═O portals (Fig. 1 and Table 1). The solvating H2O molecules form a cap on the complex by H-bonding to CB[6], the diammonium ion, themselves, and finally terminated by H-bonding to the I- counterion (Fig. 2). Complex (I) packs in the crystal by formation of a square array in the bc plane (Fig. 3).
Most interesting is the substantial ellipsoidal deformation observed in complex (I). We quantify this distortion for complex (I) as 0.88 Å (non-bonded C—C range 9.852–10.730 Å) by determining the distances between opposing C-atoms along the equator of the molecule as suggested previously by Samsonenko (Samsonenko et al., 2002). Although this ellipsoidal deformation is modest relative to those previously reported for complexes of CB[6] and other CB[n]-type receptors, taken together the results highlight the ability of CB[n]-type receptors to respond to the size and shape of their guests.
