Abstract
Transition metals can be used for shaping and electronically enriching the calix[4]arene cavity; in this approach, the pi-basic cavities can be adapted to alkali-metal cation complexation in a very hydrophobic environment and these cations can even be transferred into aliphatic h ydrocarbons; the eta(6)-arene-alkali-metal cation interaction is struc turally elucidated.
