The numbers under each peak represent the values of the peak integrals. In the initial solutions used (i.e. before the sorption process) the ratio of peak integrals was equal to. The exact quantities of the reactants in the various reactions performed are: x.5 [MeOH (4.5 μl,3.56 mg,. mmol,.5 eq.), toluene (.75 μl,.25 mg,. mmol ), UCY-5/dry (. g,.222 mmol) in 4mL CD 3 Cl], x.8 [MeOH (7.2 μl, 5.69 mg,.78 mmol,.8 eq.), toluene (8.8 μl,6.4 mg,.78 mmol) and UCY-5/dry (. g,.222mmol) in 4mL CD 3 Cl], x [MeOH (9 μl, 7. mg,.222 mmol, eq.), toluene (23. 5 μl,.5mg,.222mmol) and UCY-5/dry (. g,.222 mmol) in 4mL CD 3 Cl], x2 [MeOH (8 μl,4.22mg,.444 mmol, 2 eq.), toluene (47 μl, 4. mg,.444 mmol) and UCY-5/dry (. g,.222 mmol) in 4mL CD 3 Cl], x2.5 [MeOH (22.5 μl, 7.78mg,.555 mmol 2.5 eq.), toluene (58.75 μl/5.25 mg/.555 mmol), UCY-5/dry (. g,.222 mmol) in 4mL CD 3 Cl], x3 [MeOH (27 μl,2.33 mg,.666 mmol, 3 2

The peaks at 2.35 and 3.49 correspond to the methyl groups of toluene and MeOH respectively. The concentrations of MeOH after the sorption processes were determined using as reference the toluene that is not absorbed by UCY-5/dry at these reaction conditions (i.e magnetic stirring at room temperature and atmospheric pressure) and thus its concentration remains unchanged after the treatment of the solution with UCY-5/dry. For each experiment, the initial concentrations of MeOH and toluene were equal (i.e. the ratio of the peak integrals for the methyl groups of toluene and MeOH were equal to in the H-NMR spectra of the initial solutions).
