Abstract
Two isomers, F and G, of tetramethyldibenzo-18-crown-6 each with 4 chiral carbon atoms give complexes with caesium thiocyanate; CsNCS(F) consists of centrosymmetrical dimeric molecules with Cs–N–Cs bridges, the other co-ordinating atoms being the six oxygens of F at 3·07–3·34 Å and the aryl carbon atoms at 3·79 Å, while CsNCS(G)2 consists of Cs(G)2 + cations having symmetry with 12 Cs–O contacts at 3·17–3·43 Å and disordered thiocyanate ions.
