Abstract
The bridged calix[6]arene 2, the first concave aniline, was synthesize d via the nitro compound 1 using iron pentacarbonyl as reducing agent. The basicity of 2 was investigated qualitatively and quantitatively. On the NMR time scale both compounds adopt a C-2v-symmetrical conforma tion but variable temperature NMR measurements reveal that 1 is in a C -s-symmetrical shape at deep temperatures.
