Abstract
1,3-Dipropyloxycalix[4]arene dibenzocrown ethers were synthesized in t he fixed 1,3-alternate conformation by the reaction of 1,3-dipropyloxy calix[4]arenes with a dibenzo dimesylates. Complexation toward alkali metal ions using ISEs showed a high cesium selectivity. Conformational flexibility of the corresponding 1,3-alternate calixcrown ether (4) w ith respect to the NMR time scale is found to depend on the temperatur e and polarity of the NMR solvent.
