Abstract
In the crystalline title complex, the guest molecules are ordered and the inclusion geometry is stabilized by a system of host–guest O–H ⋯ O, C–H ⋯ O and C–H ⋯π contacts; this is an example of weak but crucial polar interactions between the surface of a cyclodextrin cavity and a cluster of polar guest molecules.
