An ab initio study of the influence of crystal packing on the host-guest interactions of calix[4]arene crystal structures

We report the first quantum mechanical calculations of p-tert-butylcalix[4]arene inclusion complexes in the crystalline state with geometrical aspects demonstrating good agreement with experiment, while comparison of the configurations calculated for an isolated complex and in the crystal, illustrat...
