Abstract

Glycoluril derivative 1—whose bulky Ph–C[triple bond, length as m-dash]C– substituents prevent formation of H-bonded tapes—undergoes solvent dependent assembly in the crystal; a tetrameric molecular bowl is formed by R44(24) H-bonding interactions from CH2Cl2 whereas DMF results in H-bond dimerization followed by oligomerization via C–H⋯π interactions.
