To gain information on CH-π interactions, suitable geometrical parameters have been calculated from the crystal data of intramolecular inclusion complexes. The results show that L 3·CH 3NO 2 with L 3 in C 2 symmestry can also be bound stably in the intramolecular inclusion complex, being consistent with the thermal analysis.
