A slippery character : Cyclooligomerization of resorcinol with a highly fluorinated aldehyde afforded a “teflon‐footed” resorcinarene 1 F , which is soluble in wet fluorous solvents through formation of a hexameric capsule. The supramolecular capsules in fluorous solvents exhibited more selective and/or enhanced properties as a result of fluorophobic effects on molecular encapsulation (such as encapsulating eight molecules of benzene, see picture).
