The V-shaped racemic compound 4,12-dinitro-6,7,14,15-tetrahydro-6,14-methanocycloocta[1,2-b:5,6-b'] diquinoline 2 crystallises from solvents of differing water content as a centrosymmetric spheroidal hexamer in the form of a series of isostructural clusters (2)(6)center dot(water)(x) X-ray structures of these crystals in space group R (3) over bar show that they can exhibit an extent of hydration anywhere throughout the composition range x = 0 to 1.
