Abstract

Cucurbituril-based organic molecular porous materials with 1D channels filled with water-acid arrays were synthesized. The isostructural materials showed different proton conductivity depending on the nature and number of acid molecules present in the channels. The highly anisotropic conduction behavior of the materials was studied by single-crystal conductivity measurements.
