X-ray and neutron diffraction studies of water-encapsulated inside potassium aryloxide aggregates : complementary host-guest stabilization of mono- and dihydrated cages.
The controlled hydrolysis of potassium 2-tert-butylphenoxide or 2-isopropylphenoxide leads to the unexpected encapsulation of the water inside K{sub 6}O{sub 6} hexameric drum aggregates. Encapsulation of the neutral molecules is enabled in these instances through the formation of strong hydrogen bonds and dative interactions between the host and guest.
