A family of cone p-tert-butylcalix[4]arene-crown-5 compounds with various substituents (H, COCH3, CH2CO2C 2H5 and CH2CO2H) appended at the opposite phenolic oxygen atoms have been synthesised to evaluate their efficiency and selectivity towards different alkali and alkaline-earth metal ions, and also to ascertain the role of the appended side-arms in the complexation process. The selectivity of these ionophores towards Na +, K+, Mg2+, and Ca2+ has been evaluated with an aqueous solution containing an equimolar mixture of these ions. The concentration of metal ion in the extract (organic phase) has been estimated by ion chromatographic assay. Among these ions, K+ shows the highest selectivity in all cases except one, where the two phenolic oxygen atoms contain COCH3 substituents. All the ionophores show poor selectivity towards Mg2+ and Ca2+. Association constants (Ka) for the binding of Na+ and K+ to these ionophores have been determined spectrophotometrically. Ka (7.2 × 107) is highest for the binding of K+ to the ionophore with CH2CO2C2H5 substituants. The molecular structures of four of the ionophores and four of the metal complexes have been established by single-crystal X-ray crystallography. Analysis of the structures revealed that in case of the ionophore with two COCH3 substituents, the C-H...O interactions form an eight-membered zigzag ring almost perpendicular to the crown ring, which prevents entry of the metal ions into the calix-crown cavity. The ionophore with CH2CO2C2H5 substituents, where no such interaction is observed, forms metal complexes easily and exhibits the highest association constant. 1H and 13C NMR studies have also been, carried out to investigate the conformational behaviour of these ionophores and their metal complexes in solution.

Reaction of 1,3-dipropoxy-p-tert-butyl-calix[4]arene (L1H2) with KN(SiMe3)2 afforded a one-dimensional (1D) chain complex [K2L1]n (1). Upon reaction with 1 equivalent 18-crown-6, complex 1 can convert to complex [K2(18-crown-6)L1] (2) which possesses a sandwich structure. Treatment of two calix[4]arene-crown ligands of 1,3-dihydroxy-p-tert-butyl-calix[4]arene-crown-5 (L2H2) and 1,2-dihydroxy-p-tert-butyl-calix[4]arene-crown-5 (L3H2) with KN(SiMe3)2 gave the dinuclear complex [K2L2] (3) and the mononuclear complex [K(THF)L3H] (4), respectively. Complexes 1-4 were all characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction techniques. The variable temperature 1H NMR spectrum indicates there is a quick rotation equilibrium of the two phenoxy groups in complex 3. In addition, complexes 1-4 have been tested for the ring-opening polymerization (ROP) of rac-lactide and the results showed that complexes 2 and 3 are highly active for the ROP of rac-lactide. The obtained polymers displayed low dispersity values (D) and the molecular weights are close to the calculated ones. Furthermore, complexes 2 and 3 show moderate isoselectivities of Pm = 0.67 and Pm = 0.73, respectively.

Selective ring closures of p-tert-butylthiacalix[4]arene and p-tert-butylcalix[4]arene with oligoethylene glycols were performed under the Mitsunobu protocol using the DEAD/TPP system. The method opens a new perspective for the syntheses of 1,3-calixcrowns.

A "bimodal" or upper- and lower-rim functionalized "calix-crown-5" reported herein was unexpectedly formed preferentially in a cone conformation. This was confirmed both by NMR spectroscopy and by single-crystal X-ray crystallography. The thioacetate functionalities on the new calix-crown-5 enabled it to form stable SAMs on the Au surface of a microcantilever, and a sensitive cesium ion sensor. This journal is

Two heteroditopic receptors based on a calix[4]arene crown ether containing amidoanthraquinone pendants in cone and 1,3-alternate conformations (1 and 2, respectively) were synthesized. Photophysical properties of 1 and 2 were studied by UV-vis and fluorescence spectrophotometry in dried CH3CN. Both 1 and 2 showed the highest sensitivity towards F- through the appearance of a new charge transfer band at 500 nm and the enhancement of the emission spectra at λem = 542 nm and 528 nm respectively. Interestingly, in the presence of K+, the fluorescence intensity of 1 at 542 nm increased around 2 fold compared to that in the absence of K + upon addition of F-, while this phenomenon was not observed in the case of receptor 2. Cyclic voltammograms of receptors 1 and 2 showed two consecutive one-electron reversible waves in 40% v/v CH3CN in CH2Cl2, corresponding to two single-electron reductions to give mono- and dianions species at E1/2I = -1.21 V and E1/2II = -1.66 V as well as E1/2I = -1.25 V and E 1/2II = -1.71 V, respectively. H2PO4 - gave remarkable potential shifts (ca. 200 mV) of the second reduction waves (E1/2II) of both free 1 and 2. In the presence of K+, only receptor 1 gave remarkable potential shifts in its redox wave II upon adding F- and AcO-. Therefore, receptors 1 and 2 exhibited dual sensing modes by fluorescence spectrophotometry and cyclic voltammetry. The topology of ligands also played an important role in cooperative binding properties of heteroditopic receptor 1 possessing a closer distance between a cation and an anion binding. On the other hand, the two ion binding sites of receptor 2 were separated by a longer distance and did not support the cooperative binding. This resulted in the abstraction of K + from receptor 2 upon addition of anions.
