I was wondering if anyone can suggest a supra-molecular compound with a cavity size more than 40 Angstrom. I can only find some of them with no more than 10 Angstrom which is much smaller than the size that I am after. Thanks in advance. Remark: Please do me a favor and support your answer with the molecular formula of the proposed candidate (if any).

Please see papers by Andrew Cooper in Liverpool. They synthesize huge organic molecular cages. Here is one of their papers, which is open access:

Cooper's group have even larger cages than these but they haven't been published yet.
