Pillar[5]arenes, as a new intriguing class of calixarene analogues, were functionalized with ten diglycolamide (DGA) arms on both sides (rims) of the pillar framework and evaluated for their extraction behaviour towards Am(III) and Eu(III). These novel extractants exhibit excellent separation and extraction efficiency, suggesting its significant potential for nuclear waste remediation. Laser in...

In the title compound, C(55)H(69)BrO(4), the calixarene mol-ecule displays a 'partial cone' conformation bearing the lateral substituent in a sterically favorable equatorial arrangement between two syn-orientated arene units. The crystal packing is stabilized by weak C-H⋯π contacts, involving one tert-butyl group, and π-stacking inter-actions of the lateral bromo-benzene units [centroid-centroi...

Research on the therapeutic applications of calixarene derivatives is an emerging area of interest. The anticancer activity of various functionalized calixarenes has been reported by several research groups. Due to their superior geometric shape, calixarenes can accommodate drug molecules by forming inclusion complexes. Controlled release of anticancer drugs by calixarenes might help in targete...

We describe the calixarene-cyclodextrin-coupling via click reaction starting from 5,11,17,23-tetra-tert-butyl-25,27-dipropargylether-26,28-hydroxy-calix[4]arene (calix[4]arene-dipropargylether) (2) onto 6I-azido-6I-deoxycyclomaltoheptaose (3) under microwave assisted conditions. The coupling was proven by MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry, ¹H NMR and IR-spectroscopy. The pH dependent supramolecular c...

An amphiphilic calix[4]arene bearing branched 3,4,5-tris(2-(2-(2-methoxyethoxy)ethoxy)ethoxy)benzamide groups at the upper rim was synthesized and could increase the solubility of naproxen and ibuprofen in water through hydrogen bonding and π-π stacking interactions. The interactions between amphiphilic calix[4]arene and carboxylic acids such as naproxen and ibuprofen could reverse the directio...

In this research, Quantum-mechanical calculations were performed at the HF method with the 6-31+G*basis set and at the B3LYP method with the 6-31+G* basis set in the gas phase and five solvents such as water, DMSO, methanol, ethanol and dichloromethane at six temperatures. According to these theoretical results of IR, we extracted thermo chemical parameters such as enthalpy (∆H Kcal/mol), Gibbs...

Calixarenes as macrocyclic oligomers with 4–20 phenol units present two dened rims and a hydrophobic core. Since they show extensive host properties for small guest molecules, calixarenes are of high interest in supramolecular science. Due to their many unique properties, calixarenes are interesting candidates for the preparation of supramolecular polymers and nanostructures. Calixarenes are a...
