Abstract

A 2,5-diamidopyrrole-capped macrobicycle was synthesized and its chloride salt binding ability evaluated in polar and apolar organic solvents. X-ray crystal structures of the receptor and its sodium chloride complex were obtained and in the latter structure the salt is bound as a contact ion-pair.
