The quantum-chemical study of the formation mechanism of cucurbit[n]urils CB[n] has been performed by the PBE density functional theory method. According to the thermodynamic characteristics of separate stages of CB[n] formation, the oligomer-bound water molecules formed in the course of synthesis are responsible for the predominant formation of CB[6] as compared with other CB[n] nanocavitands.
