32. The crystal structure of a conformationally flexible molecule may be influenced by several factors, especially by crystal-packing effects. They have to be taken into consideration in crystal-structure examinations. In our case the directing influence of the included solvent molecule seems to be dominant, as we observed the same effect in various cyclophanes (see ref. 13); F. Vögtle et al., unpublished results.

41. Definition of distances: height: distance between the tosylaza bridges (centre of a fictive connection line between the two nitrogen atoms) and the phenyl-phenyl bond of the opposite biphenyl; width bottom: distance between the two opposite biphenyls (centre phenyl-phenyl bond); width top: distance between two opposite sulfur bridges (centre of a fictive connection line between two sulfur atoms on each side).
42. Proposed nomenclature: Belta-benzeno〈n〉phane; n = number of benzene units. Belta means ribbon- or tube-shaped. For the meaning of 〈 〉 see: cyclophane nomenclature: G. Hohner and F. Vögtle, Chem. Ber., 1977, 110, 3052.
