Abstract: | A series of novel cone-configurated p-tert-butyl-trimethoxycalix6]arenes bearing three 2,2′-bipyridyl units at their lower rim have been synthesized. The 1H NMR and 13C NMR spectra of synthesized derivatives revealed that the ring inversion in calix6]arene could be suppressed by the introduction of three 2,2′-bipyridyl moieties at the lower rim of calix6]arene scaffold which fixes it into its cone configuration. The complexation ability of the synthesized receptors (5a–d) towards Fe(II) ion was investigated by UV-Visible titration to reveal that the synthesized receptors interact with Fe(II) in a 1:1 binding stoichiometry and respond to a specific oxidation state of the metal ion. The observations have significance for studies directed at the design of molecular receptors for ionic speciation through molecular recognition. |
