Abstract

AAO₅O₅ 3, a bisanthracene macrocyclic cyclophane, is known to be an excimer-type fluorosensor for sodium cations and to encapsulate electron-deficient species such as paraquat. Its bis-1,4-endoperoxide 4 is a tetraoxapaddlane. The molecular and crystal structures of 3 and 4 are described.
