Inclusion of Cavitands and Calix[4]arenes into a Metallobridged para-(1H-Imidazo[4,5-f][3,8]phenanthrolin-2-yl)-Expanded Calix[4]arene

A hunter hunted! A highly preorganized, deep metallocavitand of nanoscale dimensions containing rhenium atoms at the four corners can be readily synthesized from a simple formyl‐substituted calix[4]arene and 3,8‐phenanthroquinone. Unsubstituted calix[4]arenes and cavitands without substituents on th...

Description
Summary:A hunter hunted! A highly preorganized, deep metallocavitand of nanoscale dimensions containing rhenium atoms at the four corners can be readily synthesized from a simple formyl‐substituted calix[4]arene and 3,8‐phenanthroquinone. Unsubstituted calix[4]arenes and cavitands without substituents on the lower rim are the ideal guests for such an expanded calixarene (see picture), and are included with binding constants of 103–105 M−1.
