Alkali metal cations act as templates in the synthesis of cucurbit[n] uril, Q[n], for n = 5-8, either from a preformed oligomer precursor, or directly from glycoluril and formaldehyde. Q[5] has been synthesised and isolated as an unusual, water-insoluble potassium salt complex. The formation of this new complex is a convenient method for isolating Q[5] as a salt from Q[n] mixtures. The complex is a convenient, high yielding source of Q[5].
