5 Hydroquinone, Phenol, Dianin s Compound and the Hexahost Strategy 

Investigation of the dynamics of included molecules shows that small molecules such as ethanol (two per cage) are undergoing rapid liquid-like motion, even at low temperature in the solid state. On the 

The inclusion ability of 7.19 is sufficiently robust that it can tolerate a variety of substitutions and still retain (modihed) clathrate-forming ability. A wide variety of analogues have been prepared, which exhibit different size and shape cavities by the following modifications  

Changing the OH group for other hydrogen bonding functionalities such as NH2 and SH.
