Abstract
Due to the nonplanarity of the basic 1(n)-metacyclophane system, calix arenes and resorcarenes can be transformed into molecules with inheren t chirality. Various attempts to achieve this goal are reviewed. Speci al emphasis is given to derivatives with C-n-symmetry, including deriv atives of spherand calixarenes and other calixarene-like macrocycles.
