Abstract

4-tert-Butylcalix[n]arenes react with an excess of (iso)nicotinoyl chloride, yielding selectively n-2 acylated products, calix[n]-(nico)n−2(OH)2, (calix = 4-tert-butylcalix[n]arene; n = 4, 6, and 8; nico = (iso)nicotinoylate) of alternate conformations. Their structures were determined by X-ray single crystallography and NMR spectra. The UV–vis spectra indicated that a new absorption band of the complexes appears upon the addition of cobalt(II) dichloride, and its crystal structure was resolved.
