NMR experiments demonstrate that, although 2b and 3b form hexameric capsules in chloroform solutions and despite the very similar building units of these hexamers, 3b encapsulates only the noncharged trialkylamines while 2b can encapsulate both the noncharged trialkylamines and the respective ammonium salts obtained by the addition of DCl. In fact, it was found that protonation that forms in situ the ammonium salt ejects the guest from the hexameric capsule of 3b. This is a general observation as it was found for guests containing alkyl chains of four, five, six, and eight carbons.
