Tribenzo-18-crown-6 acetonitrile disolvate.
Tribenzo-18-crown-6 binds two acetonitrile ligands, i.e. C(24)H(24)O(6) x 2C(2)H(3)N, one to each face of the crown ring. The crown conformation is relatively low in energy, but does not appear optimized for cation binding. Few significant intermolecular interactions are observed.
