The reaction of the macrocyclic cavitand cucurbit[6]uril (CB[6]) and the diaqua complex [MoO 2 Cl 2 (H 2 O) 2 ] in hydrochloric acid solution gave a water insoluble supramolecular compound with the general composition 2[MoO 2 Cl 2 (H 2 O) 2 ]·CB[6]·xH 2 O·yHCl·z(CH 3 COCH 3 ) (2). Single crystal X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis revealed the presence of barrel-shape supramolecular entities, {CB[6]·10(H 2 O)}, aligned in layers which are shifted relative to adjacent layers to form a brick-like pattern. The CB[6]/water hydrogen-bonded entities further engage in intermolecular interactions with water, HCl and [MoO 2 Cl 2 (H 2 O) 2 ] molecules to form a three-dimensional (3D) framework. Compound 2 was characterised by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), IR and Raman vibrational spectroscopy, and 13 C{ 1 H} CP MAS NMR. The reference complex [MoO 2 Cl 2 (H 2 O) 2 ]·(diglyme) 2 (1) and compound 2 were studied for the oxidative catalytic conversion of olefins (cis-cyclooctene, cyclohexene and styrene) with aqueous H 2 O 2 as oxidant. Using alcohols as solvents, 2 was employed in a one-pot two-stage strategy for converting olefins to alkoxy products, which involves oxidation (with H 2 O 2 ) and acid chemistry. Mechanistic studies were carried out using different intermediates as substrates, and the type of solvent and substrate scope were investigated. The results demonstrated the ability of the CB[6]/Mo VI supramolecular adduct to function as an acid-oxidation multifunctional catalyst, and its recovery and reuse via relatively simple procedures.
