Abstract
The monolayer properties of p-tert-butylthiacalix[4]arene (TCA) at the air- water interface was investigated by the measurements of surface pressure-ar ea isotherms. However. TCA only exists as a trimmer aggregate on the subpha se of deionized water. Copper(II) ion in the subphase can induce the monola yer formation of TCA. The UV-Vis spectra and FTIR spectra of the transferre d films suggested that the monolayer formation was fulfilled through the co ordination of copper(II) ion to TCA at the air-water surface.
