19. The inner diameters are calculated as geometrically opposing atomic distances, minus the following van der Waals radii: P, 0.18 nm; Cu, 0.14 nm. The outer diameter is taken as twice the largest distance from the theoretical center of the molecule to the tBu hydrogen atoms, plus twice the van der Waals radius for H (2 x 0.12 nm). For the inner cavity, the term "diameter" is defined here as the diameter of the largest spherical form that is geometrically allowed inside the cavity by the given atoms.
