The synthesis and crystal structures of a calix[4]arene (1) with two affixed pyrene units and its corresponding inclusion compound with chloroform (1a) are reported. In both cases, stacking structures resulting from the influencing control of the pyrene units are observed. Dependent on the absence or presence of the included guest solvent, infinite or dimeric stack motifs of the pyrene units are concerned, respectively.
