Preparation and characterization of a new type of symmetrical dicyclopentyl substituted cucurbit[6]uril

A symmetrical dicyclopentyl substituted cucurbit[6]uril (CyP2Q[6]) was synthesized, and crystallized under the conditions of 3 mol/L hydrochloric acid solution and the induction of ZnCl2. The crystal structure was characterized by X-ray single crystal diffractometer, 1H NMR and MS, and the results show that the crystal belongs to the monoclinic crystal system with P21/n space group, a = 13.095 (2), b = 33.002 (6), c = 15.770 (3), α = 90°, β = 102.828(5)°, γ = 90°, Z = 4, and a macroporous honeycomb structure appears in the crystal.
