A convenient way to modify calix[4]arenes based on the direct C-C coupling reaction of their phenol moiety with 1,2,4-triazines has been advanced, and the ability of modified calixarenes to provide transport of La3+ and Ga3+ cations through organic membranes has been examined.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
