چکیده
Treatment of p-tert-butylcalix[6]areneH6 (L(6)H6) with in situ [LiVO(Ot-Bu)4] afforded, after work-up, the dark green complex [Li(MeCN)4][V2(O)2Li(MeCN)(L(6)H2)2]·8MeCN (1·8MeCN). On one occasion, the reaction led to the formation of a mixture of products, the bulk of which differing from 1 only in the amount of solvate, viz.2·9.67MeCN. The second minor, yellow product has the formula {[(VO2)2(L(6)H2)(Li(MeCN)2)2]·2MeCN}n (3·2MeCN), and comprises a 1D polymeric structure with links through the L(6)H2 ligand and Li2O2 units. When the reverse order of addition was employed such that lithium tert-butoxide (7.5 equivalents) was added to L(6)H6, and subsequently treated with VOCl3 (2 equiv.), the complex {[VO(THF)][VO(μ-O)]2Li(THF)(Et2O)][L(6)]}·2Et2O·0.5THF (4·2Et2O·0.5THF), which contains a trinuclear motif possessing a central, octahedral vanadyl centre linked via oxo bridges to two tetrahedral (C3v) vanadyl centres, was isolated. The calix[6]arene in 4 is severely twisted and adopts a ‘down, down, down, down, out, out’ conformation. Use of excess lithium tert-butoxide led to a complex very similar to 4, differing only in the solvent of crystallization, namely 5·Et2O·2THF. The ability of 1 and 5 to act as pre-catalysts for ethylene polymerization in the presence of a variety of co-catalysts and under various conditions has been investigated. Co-polymerization of ethylene with propylene and with 1-hexene have also been conducted; results are compared versus VO(OEt)Cl2.

Tris-(N-phenylureido)-calix[6]arene derivatives are heteroditopic non-symmetric molecular hosts that can form pseudorotaxane complexes with 4,4'-bipyridinium-type guests. Owing to the unique structural features and recognition properties of the calix[6]arene wheel, these systems are of interest for the design and synthesis of novel molecular devices and machines. We envisaged that the incorpora...
متن کاملCellular uptake of a fluorescent vanadyl sulfonylcalix[4]arene.
Vanadyl bearing calix[4]arene ligands have undergone evaluation against several cell lines, and show varying degrees of toxicity. For vanadyl complexed to a sulfonylcalix[4]arene, monitoring of the strong blue fluorescence revealed slow uptake kinetics. The complex is exclusively found in the cytoplasm of the cells and uptake is not due to active endocytotic mechanisms.
