The crystalline sodium salt of calix[4]arene‐sulfonate 1 consists of alternating organic and inorganic layers . Double layers of the basketlike pentaanions alternate with layers of sodium ions and water molecules; the similarity with the structures of clays is readily apparent. Acetone is bound in the cavity of 1 , the O atom projecting into the hydrophilic layer (see right).
