Crystal Structure and Phase Transition of the C–H···F–H-Bonded Supramolecular Compound with 4-Nitroanilinium Based on 18-Crown-6

A novel inorganic-organic hybrid supramolecular macrocyclic compound, (4-nitroanilinium)(18-crown-6)(PF6)(1), was synthesized and characterized by infrared spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, elemental analysis, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Cry...
