Compound (I) was synthesized according to literature methods (Gale et al., 1996). Crystals of the tetrabutylammonium fluoride complex of (I) were obtained by slow evaporation of a dichloromethane solution of (I) in the presence of excess tetrabutylammonium fluoride.
Disorder was found to be present in the TBA cation. The butyl arms of the TBA exhibit conformational disorder in the 1 and 3 positions with the major component 60% occupied.

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. |

The anion complexation properties of the calix[4]pyrrole family of macrocycles (Sessler & Gale, 2000) has been an area of continuing interest since the first paper describing anion complexation in these systems was published in 1996 (Gale et al., 1996). In this paper, we present the crystal structure of the fluoride complex, (I), of meso-octamethylcalix[4]pyrrole, a macrocycle regarded as the `parent' of this class of receptor due to its original synthesis by Baeyer in 1886 from acetone and pyrrole (Baeyer, 1886). This structure is of particular interest as calix[4]pyrroles are selective receptors for fluoride.
The structure of the title compound, (I), is meso-octamethyl-substituted calix[4]pyrrole coordinated to a fluoride anion, the charge of which is balanced by a tetrabutylammonium (TBA) cation, crystallizing with a dichloromethane (DCM) solvent (Fig. 1a shows the disordered TBA in its major component, whilst Fig. 1 b depicts the minor conformation). For clarity, Fig. 2 depicts solely the macrocycle–anion complex. The crystal structure of the TBA chloride complex of (I) was published in 1996 (Gale et al., 1996) (CSD refcode TEQKIJ; Allen & Kennard, 1993), but is not isostructural, as one might expect, to the structure reported herein. The structure of (I) therefore allows a comparison of the effects of chloride and fluoride binding to the parent macrocycle.
The macrocycle adopts a cone conformation in order to allow all four NH protons to hydrogen bond to the fluoride anion (Fig. 2). The average N···F separation is 2.767 (7) Å [3.303 (5) Å] and the average H···F interaction distance is 1.905 (7) Å [2.404 (6) Å], values in square brackets indicate the equivalent value for the chloride complex. The N···N cross-ring separations are N1···N1i = 4.688 (3) Å [4.723 (4) Å] and N2···N3 = 4.688 (3) Å [4.682 (5) Å] [symmetry code: (i) -x + 1, y, z], whilst the cavity formed by the meso-carbons is an average of 5.043 Å in length [5.07 Å] and 7.132 Å diagonally [7.169 Å]. These geometric parameters demonstrate a slight contraction of the fluoride-bound macrocycle with respect to that of the chloride complex. The meso-C atoms deviate from planarity with an average r.m.s. deviation from the plane of -0.2162 Å [-0.202 Å]. The dihedral angles formed between this plane and the pyrrole rings are 41.57 (5), 44.25 (5) and 40.03 (6)° [45.28 (6), 45.56 (7), 46.18 (5) and 41.05 (6)°] for the N1, N2 and N3 rings, respectively. The average dihedral angle between these planes is smaller for the fluoride versus the chloride complex, reflecting the smaller radius of F- and hence the need for the pyrrole rings to be less angled with respect to the macrocycle. An average angle of 109.47 (3)° on both unique meso-carbons (C5 and C10) indicates ideal tetrahedral geometry and hence absence of any strain imposed on the macrocycle due to coordination to the anion.
