One-step Synthesis of p-tert-Butylcalix[6]-1,4-2,5- biscrown-4 and its Tosyloxyethoxyethylate Derivative

Structural factors of amphiphilic calix[6]biscrowns affecting their vesicle–nanotube transitions in self-assembly

“…All materials and reagents were used directly from commercial suppliers unless mentioned. CamA6, CA5 and Cca5 were synthesized from a calix [6]biscrown precursor 29 separately as shown in Scheme S1-S3, ESI. † In order to obtain the selfassembled aggregates, distilled water was injected into the ethanol solutions of the calix [6]biscrowns to give different volume ratios of water/ethanol.…”

Self-assembly of amphiphilic calix[6]crowns: from vesicles to nanotubes

“…Compound 3 was produced by the one-pot synthesis with a simplicity and good efficiency we previously developed. 8 The 13 C NMR spectra of TAC show that it maintains 1,4-alternate conformation as compound 3 does. 9 The details of synthesis and characterization of TAC can be found in the ESI †.…”
