31. In 3, each cavity A accommodates two hydrogen-bonded ether molecules, and each cavity B accommodates one non-hydrogen-bonded ether molecule.
32. In 4, each cavity in a sheet is filled with two molecules of DMF (O7, O8) that are hydrogen-bonded in the same sheet and two molecules of DMF (O9, O10) which are hydrogen-bonded to each of the adjacent sheets.
33. Single crystals of 3 quickly become opaque, probably due to loss of non-hydrogen-bonded diethyl ether.
