Wide rim tetraurea calix[4]arenes form hydrogen bonded dimeric capsules in apolar solvents in the presence of a suitable guest, which must be included in the cavity. The monomeric and dimeric form are never observed simultaneously under usual conditions. In general the combination of two different alkyl or aryl tetraurea derivatives results in the mixture of two homodimers and a heterodimer, however, only the heterodimeric species is observed in the 1:1 mixture of aryl and tosyl ureas.

The monomeric and dimeric form are never observed simultaneously under usual conditions. In general the combination of two different alkyl or aryl tetraurea derivatives results in the mixture of two homodimers and a heterodimer, however, only the heterodimeric species is observed in the 1:1 mixture of aryl and tosyl ureas. The (hetero)dimerization of oligourea calix[4]arenes (units) was used to construct larger structures via self-assembly of multiple calixarenes (building blocks) containing two (or more) covalently connected units. Among these self-assembled structures linear or branched polymers, cyclic oligomers and well-organized dendrimers were envisaged. The synthesis of the building blocks requires the preparation of calix[4]arene units possessing one (or more) functional group at the narrow or wide rim. Finally the oligourea units were covalently connected either directly or via suitable spacers within appropriate building blocks using amide bonds. Self-assembly properties of such building blocks were investigated.» weiterlesen» einklappen
