title: Tetra-kis[2-(benzyl-amino-carbonyl)phenox-ymeth-yl]methane.
abstract: The title compound, C(61)H(56)N(4)O(8), is arranged with all four salicylamide arms disposed in a circular fashion. Each arm has a similar conformation and they are extended so that their terminal groups can fold back. The four carbonyl O atoms are located on the outside of the mol-ecule. The structure is stabilized by intra- and inter-molecular N-H⋯O hydrogen-bonding inter-actions.
