Abstract

Capping of cyclotriphenolene (3a) by the more available cyclotriguaiacylene (3c) or trisbromocyclotriphenolene (3b) gives the first rim-functionalized cryptophane-111 derivatives. Crystal structures of the xenon complexes reveal high cavity packing coefficients and unprecedentedly short Xe?C contacts.
