A new series of crown compounds bearing two carboxyl groups (2a-c; crownophanedicarboxylic acids) were prepared via intramolecular [2 + 2] photocycloaddition of bis-styrene derivatives. In the liquid-liquid extraction, crownophanedicarboxylic acids (2a-c) showed a low affinity toward alkali metal cations, though both 2b and 2c showed an extraordinary high affinity toward zinc cation among heavy metal cations examined.
