Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="main"> <title> <x xml:space="preserve">Abstract</x> </title> <p>The binding behavior of a cavitand introduced by de Mendoza is explored with new guest species. <named-content content-type="reactionType" xlink:type="simple" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">Dimerization</named-content> to hydrogen‐bonded capsules occurs in the presence of appropriate guests, including alkanes, alkylated arenes, stilbenes, benzanilides, and carbodiimides. Peripheral tetraethylene glycol groups are attached to the cavitand to improve solubility. Encapsulation of hydrophobic compounds can be observed in aqueous media.
