Abstract
The effects of alpha-substituents on sodium-ion selectivities of bis(1 2-crown-4-methyl) malonates, which are highly selective for sodium ion s, were investigated by incorporating various substituents with high l ipophilicity, bulkiness, polarity and back strain. The incorporation o f geminal substituents such as long alkyl chains and benzyl groups int o the alpha-position of the malonate was found to generally enhance th e Na+ selectivity, especially against K+, of the bis(12-crown-4) deriv atives. The alpha,alpha'-dibenzylmalonate derivative gave the best Na selectivity of all the bis(crown ether)s designed here.
