Channel Confinement of Aromatic Petrochemicals via Aryl–Perfluoroaryl Interactions With a B←N Host

We report channel confinement properties of an electron-deficient boron host derived from the orthogonal B←N interaction between a boronic ester and trans-pentafluorostilbazole. The boron host forms one-dimensional channels in the crystalline solid state when crystallized with common electron-rich a...
