Abstract

The crystal structure of 18-crown-6 · 2(CH3CN) has been determined via data collection at −150°C. The structure consists of two crown molecules each hydrogen bonded to two acetonitrile moieties in the asymmetric unit, each residing around a center of inversion. The crown ethers display their fullD 3d symmetry; methyl ... O contacts range from 3.189(8) to 3.598(8) Å. There are no close contacts indicative of any interaction between the crown/2(CH3CN) units.
