The complexation of primary alkyl halides C-n-X (n = 5, 6 and 9; X = Cl, Br and I) in a new, water-soluble cavitand is evaluated. The complexes are dynamic; the host and guest adapt their shapes to accommodate each other and the guest undergoes tumbling or yo-yo like motions in the space. Evidence for halogen bonding of the halides to the aryl surfaces of the cavitand is presented.
