A long thin mol­ecule, 2,6‐di­methyl‐6‐tetra­decyl‐2‐tetra­decyl­oxy‐1,3,6‐­dioxazocan‐6‐ium iodide

An unusually long thin mol­ecule is found in the crystal structure of 2,6-di­methyl-6-tetra­decyl-2-tetra­decyl­oxy-1,3,6-dioxazocan-6-ium iodide, C35H72NO3+·I−. The length of the mol­ecule results from two extended tetra­decyl alkyl chains bonded to a central dioxazocine group. From H tip-to-tip it measures 40.336 (5) A. At its waist, the maximum dimension is 6.770 (3) A.
