Abstract The crystalline sponge method was used to produce novel encapsulation complexes with the aim of structural determination of terpenes, such as geraniol-monoterpenoid, farnesol-sesquiterpenoid and β-damascone-tetraterpenoids. Along with the structure determination of the terpenoids, non-bonding CH-π and π-π interactions were identified in the host-guest complexes, which were responsible for holding the guests in the specific position with respect to the framework. In addition, the orientation of guests with respect to the framework was studied.
