5,11,17,23,29-Penta-tert-butyl-31,32,33,34,35-penta­propoxycalix[5]arene dichloro­methane hemisolvate

The title compound, tert-butyl­propoxycalix[5]arene, C(70)H(100)O(5)·0.5CH(2)Cl(2), crystallizes as a solvate with two mol­ecules of calix[5]arene in 1,2-alternate conformations and one mol­ecule of dichloro­methane in the asymmetric unit. One tert-butyl group in one of the mol­ecules and two in the other are disordered over two positions with occupancy factors fixed at 0.5917:0.4083, 0.5901:0.4099 and 0.8535:0.1465, respectively, in the final refinement. The C atoms of a prop­oxy group in each of the mol­ecules are also disordered over two positions with occupancies of 0.7372:0.2628 and 0.5027:0.4973. The mol­ecules form intra­molecular hydrogen bonds between prop­oxy O atoms and an adjacent CH(2) group in a neighbouring prop­oxy chain. In the crystal, inter­molecular C—H⋯O and C—H⋯Cl inter­actions occur involving the dichloro­methane mol­ecule.
