High-performance Liquid Chromatography Study of the Nitration Course of Tetrabutoxycalix[4]arene at the Upper Rim:Determination of the Optimum Conditions for the Preparation of 5,11,17-Trinitro-25,26,27,28-tetrabutoxycalix[4]arene

A selective nitration of calix[4]arene at the upper rim in one pot process was described by monitoring the time dependence of the distribution of products by high‐performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The discrimination of five nitrated products was accomplished by molecular symmetry considerations and ¹H NMR analysis. As a result, unusual 5,11,17‐trinitrocalix[4]arene ( 2d ) was obtained in 57% isolated yield. 5,11‐Dinitro‐calix[4]arene ( 2b ) and 5,11,17‐trinitrocalix[4]arene ( 2d ) with tetranitrocalix[4]arene 2e were further characterized by crystal X‐ray diffraction analysis. Furthermore, as an example of potential application, trinitrocalix[4]arene 2d could be converted to triaminocalix[4]arene 3d conveniently.

Synthesis of Schiff Base Calix [4] arene Crowns

This letter reports the synthesis of Schiff base calix [4] arene crowns containing m-xylylene phenol subunit, in which calix [4] arene Schiff base crowns 2a,2b and 2c were formed by 1:1 condensation of calix [4] arene diamine 1 with dialdehydes (2,6-diformyl-4-chlorophenol 3a,2,6-diformyl-4-methylphenol 3b,2,6-diformyl-4-tert-butylphenol 3c)under high dilute condition in refluxing anhydrous ethanol in 65-70% yield.     

Two organometallic fragments inclusioned in a 1,3-alternate calix[4]arene tetraphosphane: evidence for transition metal-arene interaction through the cavity

The preparation of an 1,3-alternate calix[4]arene tetraphosphane ligand, 25,26,27,28-tetrakis{2-(diphenylphosphino)ethoxy}calix[4]arene (4), is described. Ligand 4 is obtained in four steps in 17% overall yield. Reaction of 4 with AgBF4 produced the encapsulated two silver complex [Ag2{(P,P,P,P)-tetraphencalix[4]arene}](BF4)2. The solid-state structure shows that the encapsulated silver undergoes a substantial pi-interaction by two opposite arene rings. Rhodation of 4 employing [Rh(cot)2]BF4 yielded the encapsulated complex with a bent coordination mode. Two organometallic fragments inclusioned inside a 1,3-alternate calix[4]arene tetraphosphane was also achieved by the reaction of 4 with [PtH(PPh3)2 (thf)]+. Full characterization includes X-ray structural studies of compounds 4-6.

Metallic macrocycle with a 1,3-alternate calix[4]arene phosphorus ligand

The preparation of an 1,3-alternate calix[4]arene phosphorus ligand, 25,27-bis(2-(diphenylphosphino)ethoxy)-26,28-bis(1-propyloxy)calix[4]arene (3), is presented. Ligand 3 is obtained in three steps in 64% overall yield. Reaction of 3 with [Rh(cot)2]BF4 produced the encapsulated rhodium complex [Rh[(P,P)-diphen-calix[4]arene]]BF4 (4). As revealed by a single-crystal X-ray diffraction study, the rhodium center has a bent coordination environment with a P-Rh-P angle of 135.66(3) degrees. Palladation of 3 employing [Pd(MeCN)4](BF4)2 yielded the chelate palladium complex 7 in which the palladium center has a slightly bent configuration. Treatment of the ligand with Pd(cod)Cl2 and [Pd(eta3-C4H7)(THF)2]BF4 leads to the isolation of the monometallic complex. Full characterization includes X-ray structural studies of compounds 3, 4, and 6.

Reactions of UCl4 with calix[n]arenes (n = 4, 6) in THF gave the mononuclear [UCl2(calix[4]arene - 2H)(THF)2].2THF (.2THF) and the bis-dinuclear [U2Cl2(calix[6]arene - 6H)(THF)3]2.6THF (.6THF) complexes, respectively, while the mono-, di- and trinuclear compounds [Hpy]2[UCl3(calix[4]arene - 3H)].py (.py), [Hpy](4)[U2Cl6(calix[6]arene - 6H)].3py (.3py), [Hpy]3[U2Cl5(calix[6]arene - 6H)(py)].py (.py) and [Hpy]6[U3Cl11(calix[8]arene - 7H)].3py (.3py) were obtained by treatment of UCl4 with calix[n]arenes (n = 4, 6, 8) in pyridine. The sodium salt of calix[8]arene reacted with UCl4 to give the pentanuclear complex [U{U2Cl3(calix[8]arene - 7H)(py)5}2].8py (.8py). Reaction of U(acac)4 (acac = MeCOCHCOMe) with calix[4]arene in pyridine afforded the mononuclear complex [U(acac)2(calix[4]arene - 2H)].4py (.4py) and its treatment with the sodium salt of calix[8]arene led to the formation of the 1D polymer [U2(acac)6(calix[8]arene - 6H)(py)4Na4]n. The sandwich complex [Hpy]2[U(calix[4]arene - 3H)2][OTf].4py (.4py) was obtained by treatment of U(OTf)4 (OTf = OSO2CF3) with calix[4]arene in pyridine.

Refluxing compound 2 with o-phenylendiamine, oxalyl dihydrazide, malonic dihydrazide and adipic dihydrazide in “1 + 1” intermolecular condensation mode under diluted condition, novel 1,3-bis-acyl hydrazone-bridged calix[4]arene derivatives (4a–4d) were prepared in good yields. Moreover, by condensating compound 2 with 1,3-bis(hydrazinocarbonyl-methoxy)-p-tert-butylcalix[4]arene (5), the first example of hydrazone-bridged biscalixarene (6) with calix[4]arene and thiacalix[4]arene subunits was facilely synthesized in yield of 90%. The noncompetitive and competitive extracting experiments showed that these novel hosts were good receptors for both metal cations and α-amino acids. Compounds 3a–3d and 4a–4d showed similar binding properties with high extraction percentage but low extracting selectivities. Biscalixarene 6 exhibited not only high extracting abilities but also good extracting selectivities.     

Synthesis and structures of an unusual germanium(II) calix[4]arene complex and the first germanium(II) calix[8]arene complex and their reactivity with diiron nonacarbonyl

The protonolysis reaction of the germanium(II) amide Ge[N(SiMe3)2]2 with calix[4]arene and calix[8]arene furnishes the two germanium(II) calixarene complexes {calix[4]}Ge2 and {calix[8]}Ge4, respectively, which have been crystallographically characterized. The calix[4]arene complex contains a Ge2O2 rhombus at the center of the molecule and is one of the only four germanium(II) calix[4]arenes that have been structurally characterized. The calix[8]arene species is the first reported germanium calix[8]arene complex, and it exhibits an overall bowl-shaped structure which contains two Ge2O2 fragments. The latter complex reacts with Fe2(CO)9 to yield an octairon compound, which has also been structurally characterized and contains four GeFe2 triangles arranged around the macrocyclic ring. The germanium(II) centers are oxidized to germanium(IV) in this process, with concomitant reduction of the neutral diiron species to Fe2(CO)(8)2- anions.
