title: [7,13-Bis(2-aminobenzyl)-1,4,10-trioxa-7,13-diazacyclopentadecane]diisothiocyanatobarium(II).
abstract: The X-ray crystal structure of the title complex, [Ba(NCS)(2)(C(24)H(36)N(4)O(3))], indicates that the Ba(II) cation is nine-coordinate in the solid state, being fully encapsulated by the organic receptor ligand. The receptor adopts a syn arrangement, with both pendant arms oriented on the same side of the crown moiety. The distance between the two amine N atoms is 3.911 (12) A, while the pivotal N atoms are 5.322 (10) A apart.
