title: Solid-state supramolecular structures of resorcinol-arylboronic acid compounds.
abstract: [structure: see text] An X-ray crystallographic study of unique hydrogen-bonded supramolecular solid-state networks comprised of a tetraarylboronic acid resorcinarene is described. When 1 is recrystallized from 9:1 MeOH:EtOH, partial esterification takes place to give compound 2, the corresponding half methyl ester, which forms an infinite two-dimensional array. Each molecule participates in 12 hydrogen bonds with other macrocycles. These hydrogen bonds are both B-OH- - - OH (phenolic) and OH (phenolic)- - -OH (phenolic).
