The reaction of dimethyl-amine, 18-crown-6, and perchloric acid in methanol yields the title compound, C(2)H(8)N(+)·ClO(4) (-)·C(12)H(24)O(6)·H(2)O. The dimethyl-ammonium cation and the water mol-ecule inter-act with the 18-crown-6 unit: N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds are formed between the ammonium NH(2) (+) group and four O atoms of the crown ether, while the water mol-ecule on the other side of 18-cro...

The synthesis and cation-binding properties of a series of Calixarene derivatives possessing alkyl chain groups, ester groups and crown ether rings have been investigated. The syntheses of Calix[4]arene crown ethers and Calix[6]arene derivatives possessing alkyl chain, ester group and crown ether ring have been described. In order to evaluate their monovalent cation binding abilities, solvent e...

Stability constants in 90% (v/v) DMSO /water mixture were evaluated for the complexes of Ag(I), Co(II), Cu(II), Mn(II), Ni(II), Zn(II), Pb(II), Cr(III) and Fe(III) with the macrocyclic compounds, namely, 15-crown-5, benzo-15-crown-5, 18-crown-6, dibenzo18-crown-6, dicyclohexano-18-crown-6, dibenzo-24-crown-8 and dicyclohexano-24-crown-8 by conductometric titrations. A potentiometric study of co...

Herein, a stimuli-responsive supramolecular metallogel was prepared by orthogonal coordination-driven self-assembly of a crown ether-based [3]pseudorotaxane and a 180° organic di-Pt(II) acceptor.

On heating the hydrated complexes 18-Crown[6].M[H(2)PO(4)].xH(2)O (x= 2 for M = K, Rb; x= 1.5 for M = Cs), quantitatively prepared by mechanical mixing of crystalline 18-Crown[6] and M[H(2)PO(4)], to ca. 60 degrees C, water loss takes place, accompanied by the extrusion of the crown ether from the crystalline complex and followed by reconstruction of the inorganic phase M[H(2)PO(4)](M = K, Rb, ...

In the title complex, [Na(C(2)HCl(2)O(3)S(2))(C(10)H(20)O(5))], there are two independent complex units in the asymmetric unit, one of which has a 55:45% disorder in the 15-crown-5 component. The coordination sphere about the Na atom in each complex unit comprises five bonds to O atoms of the crown ether [Na-O = 2.390 (7)-2.466 (6) Å] and one to a thio-sulfate O atom [Na-O = 2.305 (4) and 2.447...
