title: Solid-state hierarchical cyclodextrin-based supramolecular polymer constructed by primary, secondary, and tertiary azido interactions.
abstract: The crystallization of a di-azido-α-cyclodextrin revealed a polymeric self-assembly involving a variety of azido-type interactions. The crystal arrangement relies on the cooperativity of a primary azido inclusion, a secondary azido-azido interaction involving an unprecedented distribution of canonical forms, and a tertiary azido-groove interaction. The second azido group brings in a major contribution to the supramolecular structure illustrating the benefit of a difunctionalization for the generation of hierarchy.
