Abstract
3,5-Dinitro-4-methylbenzoic acid functions as a host accommodating gue st molecules in cavities created due to the coupling of six neighbouri ng molecules through hydrogen bonding. 2,6-Dimethylnaphthalene is enca psulated within the cavity unlike naphthalene. It is thought that the latter is not able to effectively fill the cavity. (C) 1998 Published by Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
