Abstract
The title compound uses a varying number of side-arm ligating atoms for the complexation of alkali cation, leading to penta-, hepta-, and octa-co-ordination for Li+, Na+, and K+, respectively, and for tetrahedral encapsulation of a water molecule, while the conformation of the 12-membered ring remains the same.Keywords
