Design of a New Host Compound, 2,2-Di(p-hydroxyphenyl)propane, and Crystal Structure of Its 1:1 Complex with Methylhydrazine

Abstract
A new host compound, 2,2-di(p-hydroxyphenyl)propane, which exhibits high inclusion ability towards phenols, amines, and hydrazines, has been designed. The crystal structure of its 1:1 complex with methylhydrazine comprises centrosymmetric cyclic dimeric units consolidated by O–H···N hydrogen bonding.
