Synthesis, spectral analysis, and thermodynamic parameters of gold(III) complex in the presence of 4-bromo-2,6-bis(hydroxymethyl)phenol and m-nitroaniline

Abstract: In the present study, we synthesized 4-bromo-2,6-bis(hydroxymethyl)phenol (BBHMP), and a gold(III) complex was synthesized in the presence of BBHMP and m-nitroaniline (m-NA). The synthesized complex was characterized using spectral (mass, UV–Vis

Synthesis of Monofunctionalized Calix[5]arenes

Seven OH-free and O -permethylated monofunctionalized calix[5]arenes carrying either additional methyl or tert -butyl groups are prepared following fragment condensation protocols. This strategy proves to be superior to previous approaches. Calix[5]arenes with free OH groups all adopt a cone conformation stabilized by a seam of hydrogen bonds at the lower rim. Post-condensation modifications, i.e., methylation of phenolic OH groups or functional group interconversions can also be achieved. Bulky tert -butyl groups are also found to stabilize the cone conformations of O -methylated compounds. These compounds offer versatile functional groups that make these concave molecules interesting building blocks for the synthesis of more sophisticated molecular architectures.

Synthesis and oxygen permeation of novel polymers of phenylacetylenes having two hydroxyl groups via different lengths of spacers
