Abstract
Forced interaction: The encapsulation of a large assembly of organic species - the 24 butyrate unit, which exhibits a remarkable central spherical hydrophobic cavity spanned by 72 H atoms - in a porous capsule (see picture) leads to interesting interactions between the butyrates under the confined conditions. The quarantine for the guests is lifted upon temperature increase: guests can easily leave and return.
