| Abstract: | A calix[5]arene-based solvent extraction reagent displaying very high selectivity for lead has been prepared, one molecule of which extracts two lead ions in a stepwise manner. The first Pb2+ ion is bound to five phenoxy oxygen atoms inside the calixarene cavity due to which the ligand undergoes conformational freezing in stable cone conformer. This causes positive allosteric effect for co-extraction of the second lead ion due to the aggregation of functional groups. |
