Abstract
Abstract The determination of the crystal structure of a complex formed between sodium bromide and dicyclohexyl-18-crown-6 (IsomerB), has shown that the six oxygen atoms of the ligand form a planar ring round the sodium ion. The coordination sphere of the sodium ion is completed by two water molecules, one above and one below the plane of this ring. In the crystalline state the molecules are bonded into a chain system by H-bonds, which form between the water molecules and the bromide ions.
