| Abstract: | A novel bis-naphthalimidocalix4]arene-Cu(II) supramolecular complex has been observed to provide an efficient recognition system for CN? ions in aqueous medium. The binding stoichiometry of bis-naphthalimidocalix4]arene and copper ion has been found to be 1:1 while that for bis-naphthalimidocalix4]arene-Cu(II) and cyanide ion it has been determined to be 1:2. |
