Abstract
The presented azoxy compound is an example of a new crown ether analog ue. It has been synthesized by the reduction of an open chain dinitro compound with stannite under strongly alkaline conditions. A method fo r the separation of the azo and azoxy compounds formed simultaneously has been.proposed. The structures of two crystallographically independ ent molecules of compound 2 have been determined. In spite of the smal l size of the macroring in compound 2, the phenyl residues around the azoxy group have a trans orientation.
