Complexation and Transport of Alkali and Alkaline Earth Metal Cations by p-tert-Butyldihomooxacalix[4]arene Tetraketone Derivatives

The binding properties of three p-tert-butyldihomooxacalix[4]arene tetraketone derivatives (tert-butyl 2b, adamantyl 2c and phenyl 2d) in the cone conformation and one derivative (methyl 2a) in a partial cone conformation, towards alkali and alkaline earth metal cations have been established by extraction studies of metal picrates from water into dichloromethane, stability constant measurements in methanol and acetonitrile, and by ¹H NMR spectrometry. Transport experiments of metal picrates through a dichloromethane membrane were also performed. The results are compared to those obtained with closely-related calix[n]arene derivatives (n = 4 and 5) and discussed in terms of the substituents, size and conformational effects. Methylketone 2a is a poor binder for all the cations studied, due to its partial cone conformation. Ketones 2b, 2c and 2d show high extraction and complexation levels for the alkali cations, with similar profiles and preference for K⁺ and Na⁺ (plateau selectivity). Towards alkaline earth cations, these ketones show a strong peak selectivity for Ba²⁺ in extraction, but a plateau selectivity for Ca²⁺, Sr²⁺ and Ba²⁺ in complexation. The nature of the substituent attached to the ketone function has some influence on their binding properties, with phenylketone 2d being a slightly weaker binder than ketones 2b and 2c. ¹H NMR titrations confirm the formation of 1:1 complexes between the ketones and the cations studied, also indicating that they should be located inside the cavity defined by the phenoxy and carbonyl oxygen atoms. Ketones 2b, 2c and 2d show transport rates that do not follow, in general, the same trends observed in extraction and complexation.     

Experimental and computational studies of the binding properties of lower rim tetra- and di-substituted calix[4]arene amide derivatives with metal ions

Abstract

Experimental and theoretical binding studies of representative alkali, alkaline earth, transition, heavy metal and lanthanide cations by tetra- and di-substituted calix[4]arene amide derivatives (diethyl amide 1a–c and morpholide amide 2a–c) in the cone conformation were carried out. Binding was assessed by extraction experiments of the metal picrates from water to dichloromethane and proton NMR titrations. Density functional theory calculations were also performed to determine the binding energy of the complexes formed and to analyse the host–guest interaction modes. In the cases of ligands 1b and 2c with Na⁺ and Ag⁺ picrates, the extraction energy was also determined using the polarisable continuum model. The results are discussed in terms of the nature of the amide residue and the substitution pattern (1,3 vs. 1,2). Both tetra-amide derivatives are good extractants, showing preference for Na⁺, Ca²⁺, Ag⁺ and Pb²⁺ cations, mainly di-ethylamide 1a. Concerning di-amide derivatives, the relative position of the substituents seems to be more important than the nature of the amide group in the extraction process. Proton NMR studies indicate the formation of 1:1 complexes between the amides and the cations studied, and DFT data show that all ligands form the most stable complexes with La³⁺.     

Highly selective fluorescent chemosensor for Na<Superscript>+</Superscript> based on pyrene-modified calix[4]arene derivative

A novel calix[4]arene derivative with pyrene fluorophores at the upper rim and tetraester ionophores at the lower rim was synthesized in six steps, and its structure was proved by NMR and ESI-MS spectroscopies. Furthermore, the chemosensing behavior of the host compound for alkali and alkaline earth metal ions was investigated by fluorescence spectroscopy. The obtained results show that the calixarene host can selectively bind sodium ion with the complexation stability constant of 2190 mol⁻¹·L. The complexation with sodium ion can pronouncedly induce the excimer emission to decrease and the monomer emission to increase, whereas the addition of the other alkali and alkaline earth metal ions does not cause appreciable changes in the fluorescence spectrum of the host compound. The present calix[4]arene derivative displays potential application as fluorescent chemosensor for sodium ion.

Spectroscopic Study of Molecular Recognition of Ions by Chromogenic Calix[4]arene Derivatives

The complexation properties of three new chromogenic calix[4]arenes ( 1a–c) with aliphatic amines and alkali/alkali earth metal ions have been studied by UV/Vis spectroscopy. 1c shows the greatest complex forming ability and it is selective for Li⁺, Ca²⁺ and certain amines in polar solvents.     

Facilitated Transfer of Alkali and Alkaline‐Earth Metal Ions by a Calix[4]arene Derivative Across Water/1,2‐Dichloroethane Microinterface: Amperometric Detection of Ca2+

The host–guest complexation reactions between 5,11,17,23‐tetra‐tert‐butyl‐25,27‐diethoxycarbonylmethoxy‐26,28‐dimethoxy calix[4]arene (BDDC4) and alkali and alkaline‐earth metal ions were investigated by facilitated ion transfer processes across water/1,2‐dichloroethane microinterface by using steady‐state cyclic voltammetry and differential pulse voltammetry. The obtained facilitated transfers for Li⁺, Na⁺, K⁺, Rb⁺ and Ca²⁺ were evaluated under the different experimental conditions, at the excess concentrations of metal ions with respect to BDDC4 and vice versa. The association constants having 1 : 1 stoichiometry for Li⁺, Na⁺, K⁺ and Rb⁺ in 1,2‐DCE were determined. Also, we demonstrated that BDDC4 can play an important role for the development of highly selective chemical sensor for Ca²⁺ among alkaline‐metal ions in the concentration range of 0.1–1.0 mM in aqueous solution.     

Synthesis of novel p-tert-butyl-calix[4]arene derivatives and their cation binding ability: chromogenic effect upon side arms binding

A series of novel double-armed calix[4]arene derivatives, i.e. 5,11,17,23-tetra-tert-butyl -25,27-bis[2-[(2-hydroxy-5-(4-nitroazo)benzylidene)amino]ethoxy]-26,28-dihydroxy-calix[4]-arene (4), 5,11,17,23-tetra-tert-butyl-25,27-bis[2-[(2-hydroxy-5-(2-nitroazo)benzylidene) amino]ethoxy]-26,28-dihydroxycalix[4]arene (5), 5,11,17,23-tetra-tert-butyl-25,27-bis[2-[(2-hydroxy-5-(4-chloroazo)benzylidene)amino]ethoxy]-26,28-dihydroxycalix[4]arene (6), have been synthesized as an selective chromoionophore for Na⁺. The complexation behavior of ligands 4-6 with alkali metal ions Na⁺, K⁺, Rb⁺and Cs⁺ has been evaluated by using UV-Vis spectrometry in CH₃CN-H₂O (99:1/V:V) solution at 25°C. The UV-Vis spectra show that the complexation of 4-6 with Na⁺exhibits obvious bathochromic shifts (λ_max 379→480 nm) and there is a unique color change in the solution from yellow to red upon complexation. The binding constants for Na⁺ are higher than that of other alkali metal ions, giving the highest cation selectivity up to 7 for Na⁺/K⁺. The binding ability and photophysical behavior of alkali cations by calix[4]arene derivatives 4-6 are discussed from the point of view of substituted effects at the lower rim of parent calix[4]arene and size-fit concept between host calix[4]arenes and guest cations.

合成了基于下缘含有酰肼基团的硫杂杯芳烃衍生物的银离子载体1,其核磁研究证实硫杂杯芳烃以1,3-交替构象存在,并且通过非竞争萃取实验和竞争萃取实验研究了它对碱金属和过渡金属离子（Li⁺, Na⁺, K⁺, Cs⁺, Co²⁺, Ni²⁺, Cu²⁺, Zn²⁺ and Ag⁺）的键合能力和选择性。实验结果表明：将酰肼基团引入1,3-交替构象的硫杂杯芳烃骨架的下缘可以提高其对Ag⁺的键合能力和选择性,同时,对Cu²⁺的萃取能力较弱,对碱金属离子和其它的重金属离子几乎没有萃取能力。进一步的核磁滴定和电喷雾质谱实验显示化合物1与银离子形成配合物的配合计量比为1：1,由此推断主要由“N-Ag⁺”配位键以及硫杂杯芳烃骨架的协同作用构成了化合物1与银离子的配合模式。     

Synthesis, IR and NMR characterization and ion extraction properties of tetranonylcalix[4]resorcinol bearing acetylhydrazone groups

A series of new calix[4]resorcinarenes (rccc-isomer) and resorcinols functionalized by acetylhydrazone binding fragments have been synthesized. The IR and NMR data and stereochemical behaviour of hydrazones are reported and compared with the results of earlier investigations. The barriers of rotation of hydrazone fragments for some octahydrazone derivatives of calix[4]resorcinarenes and their resorcinol analogues have been determined by NMR-measurements. The complexing behaviour of bis- and octahydrazones has been studied by liquid-liquid extraction towards the s-metal ions (Li⁺, Na⁺, K⁺, Cs⁺ and Ca²⁺), p-metal ions (Pb²⁺), d-metal ions (Co²⁺, Ni²⁺, Cu²⁺, Zn²⁺, Cd²⁺ and Hg²⁺) and f-metal ions (La³⁺, Gd³⁺ and Lu³⁺). The stoichiometry of complexes and the extraction constants have been determined. It has been established that octahydrazones do not extract alkali metal cations but show excellent selectivity towards transition and soft heavy metal cations (especially Hg²⁺ or Pb²⁺).     

Novel Ca-selective merocyanine-type chromoionophore derived from calix[4]arene-diamide

The synthesis and calcium-selective chromogenic ion binding properties of benzothiazolium derivative of calix[4]arene are described. The merocyanine-type ionophore derived from calix[4]arene-diamide showed selective chromogenic properties toward Ca²⁺ ions in aqueous methanol. The compound showed significant Ca²⁺ ion dependent changes in UV-vis spectral properties in the presence of other physiologically important metal ions (Na⁺, K⁺, and Mg²⁺). The pH sensitive chromogenic behavior also suggests that the compound can be used as a sensitive pH indicator around pH 6.5.     

Synthesis of Flavin–Calix[4]arene Conjugate Derivatives

The synthesis of two new flavin substituted calix[4]arene derivatives, 9 and 10 , is described. The first flavin substituted calix[4]arene derivative 9 was synthesized by the reaction of 3‐methylalloxazine ( 5 ) with 25,27‐bis(3‐bromopropoxy)‐26,28‐dihydroxy‐5,11,17,23‐tetra(tert‐butyl)calix[4]arene ( 4 ) in high yield (92%). The other derivative 10 was prepared from 3‐methylalloxazine‐1‐acetic acid ( 7 ) and 25,27‐bis(3‐cyanopropoxy)calix[4]arene ( 3 ). All new compounds were characterized by a combination of FT‐IR and ¹H‐NMR spectroscopy, and elemental‐analysis techniques.     

Aminolysis reaction of calix [ 4 ] arene esters and crystal structures and conformational behaviors of calix[4]arene amides

We first make use of aminolysis of calix[4]arene esters to synthesize calix[4]arene amides. When the two ethyl esters of the calix[4]arene esters are aminolysized, the 1, 3-amide derivative is formed selectively. The crystal structures of the calix-[4]arene with two butyl amide (3b) and four butyl amide moieties (4b) were determined. The intermolecular hydrogen bonds make 4b form two-dimensional net work insolid state. The 1H NMR spectra prove that 3b is of a pinched cone conformation, while 4b and tetraheptylamide-calix[4]arene (6b) take fast interconversion between two C2v isomers in solution and appear an apparent cone conformation at room temperature. As decreasing temperature, the interconversion rate decreases gradually and, finally, the interconversion process is frozen at Tc = -10℃, which makes both conformations of 4b and 6b the pinched cone structures. The hydrogen bond improves the interconversion barrier, and the large different values of the potential barrier between 6b and 4b (or 6b) may     

Hard–Soft Receptors, Tetrakis[(N,N-diethylaminocarbonyl)methoxy] thiacalix[4]arene Derivatives with cone and 1,3-alternate Conformation

Direct O-alkylation of p-tert-butyltetrathiacalix[4]arene with N,N-diethylchloroacetamide afforded two conformational isomers (1,3-alternate and cone) of tetrakis[(N,N-diethylaminocarbonyl)methoxy]thiacalix[4]arene and 1,3-disubstituted bis[(N,N-diethylaminocarbonyl)methoxy]thiacalix[4]arene, depending on the base used. The complaxation behaviors of the tetrakis isomers were assessed by ¹H NMR titration experiments. Evidence of 1:2 (homo- and hetero-dinuclear) complexes formation of 1,3-alternate-tetrakis[(N,N-diethylaminocarbonyl)methoxy]thiacalix[4]arene with alkali (K⁺ and Na⁺) or transition (Ag⁺) metal ions was obtained. Interestingly, it was found that the cone-tetrakis[(N,N-diethylaminocarbonyl)methoxy]thiacalix[4]arene required a prior Ag⁺ complexation to form 1:2 heterodinuclear complex. Received in final form: 26 January 2005     

Exploration of Pb2+ Selective Behavior of Calix[6]arene Ester Derivative

The selective behavior of calix[n]arene ester derivatives in two-phase extraction systems using polarographic technique has been investigated. Calix[4]arene tetraester derivative shows remarkable Na⁺ over Pb²⁺ selectivity; whereas calix[6]arene hexaester derivative shows Pb²⁺ over Na⁺ selectivity. The interference of some selected cations (Na⁺, K⁺, Cu²⁺ and Mg²⁺) were also examined and no significant effect on the selectivity behavior as well as extraction ability of these ionophores was found except Na⁺. The study reveals for the first time that the calix[6]arene hexaester derivative is highly Pb²⁺ selective ionophore and can be employed in the field of sensor as well as separation science and technology. The work also highlights the usefulness of polarographic technique in trace metal determination.     

Excellent Ag+ selective receptors: Syntheses and complexation properties of novel biscalix[4]arene with benzalazine groups

By reacting mono-substituted or 1,3-bi-substituted [2-(p-formylphenyloxy)ethyloxy]-p-tert-butylcalix[4]arene (3 or 4) with hydrazine hydrate in ‘1+2’ or ‘2+2’ condensation mode, novel benzalazine-bridging biscalix[4]arenes 5 and 7 were conveniently obtained in the yields of 76 and 81%, respectively. Condensation of compound 4 and salicylide hydrazone gave a novel calix[4]arene benzalazine derivative 6 in the yield of 85%. The structures and conformations of all new compounds were characterised by elemental analyses, ESI-MS, ¹H NMR and ¹H–¹H COSY techniques. Biscalix[4]arene 7 adopts a symmetrical cone conformation with tube cavity. The liquid–liquid extraction experiment showed that all new hosts possessed excellent complexation abilities towards soft metal cations. Compound 7 exhibited high complexation selectivity towards Ag⁺. The Ag⁺/Na⁺ and Ag⁺/Hg²⁺ extraction percentages of host 7 were as high as 73.1 and 54.9, respectively. The UV–vis spectra complexation experiments revealed that the complexation constant of receptor 7 with Ag⁺ was 1.9 × 10⁵ M^? 1 and the 1:1 stoichiometry of receptor 7–Ag⁺ complex was formed. The ¹H NMR spectra complexation experiments suggested that Ag⁺ was bound in a cavity composed of two benzalazine groups on bridging chains.     

Improvement of selective d-cation binding by tetrathiacalix[4]arene hydrazides: synthesis and extraction properties

New de-tert-butyltetrathiacalix[4]arenes with acetylhydrazide substituents in cone and 1,3-alternate conformations have been synthesised with good yield by the hydrazinolysis of calix[4]arene ester derivatives. The recognition ability of synthesised macrocycles towards transition and alkali metals has been investigated by the picrate extraction method. The stoichiometry of complexes and the extraction constants have been determined. It has been found that tetrahydrazides do not extract alkali metal ions, but show an excellent affinity towards transition and heavy metal cations. The 1,3-alternate conformer of de-tert-butyltetrathiacalix[4]arene has revealed a remarkable selectivity for Ni²⁺ and Ag⁺ in the row of d-elements and for Cd²⁺ ion among the toxic heavy metals. The experimental data show that the removal of tert-butyl groups from tetrathiacalix[4]arene framework leads to the drastic improvement of extraction efficiency and selectivity of new tetrahydrazides.

Selective functionalization at the small rim of calix[6]arene. Synthesis of novel non-symmetrical N3, N4 and N3ArO biomimetic ligands

Eight novel calix[6]arene-based biomimetic ligands for transition metal ions have been synthesized. They display a non-symmetrical N₃, N₄ or N₃ArO binding core that mimics enzyme active sites presenting histidine and tyrosine residues. The key step for their synthesis is the mono-alkylation at the small rim of the C_3v symmetrical trimethyl ether derivative of tBu-calix[6]arene with N-Boc-2-chloroethylamine to yield a novel calix[6]arene synthon. Its combined O-alkylation with a chloromethyl aromatic amine and N-deprotection or alkylation or reductive alkylation with a salicylaldehyde derivative yielded the calix[6]arene-based ligands with mixed N/O donors.     

Synthesis of per-O-(carboxymethyl)calix[4]pyrogallols and their complexation with some alkaline metal and lanthanide ions

Complexones of a new class, viz., carboxy-functionalized calix[4]pyrrogallols, were synthesized. The per-O-(carboxymethyl)calix[4]pyrogallols obtained were established to exist in the (rel, cis, trans, trans)-configuration by 2D NMR spectroscopic data. According to the pH-potentiometric data, the interaction of these compounds with alkaline metal ions (Li⁺, Na⁺, K⁺, Cs⁺) and lanthanide ions (La³⁺, Gd³⁺, Lu³⁺) in a water—DMSO system produces 1 : 1 complexes. The specific features of complexation of per-O-(carboxymethyl)calix[4]pyrogallols, as compared to their acyclic analogs, with alkaline metal and lanthanide ions are due to the cooperative effect of donor groups preorganized on the calixarene matrix.
