Four new cavitand ligands, modified at the lower rim with cyano and pyridyl functional groups, have been synthesized and their coordinative behaviour toward transition metal ions has been explored. The outcome of the self-assembly of these compounds in the presence of different metal precursors is b

โฆ Synopsis
A [6]cavitand has been selectively derivatized on both the lower and upper rims. On the lower rim, two out of six potential sites were oxidized to produce a 1,4 substituted [6]cavitand bisketone, which was converted to a corresponding diol as well as a bisacetate [6]cavitand. The crystal structures of the bisketone and the diol were solved. On the upper rim, all six ArCH(3) groups were selectively brominated to ArCH(2)Br groups to produce the hexabromomethyl [6]cavitand, which was converted to the corresponding hexabenzylthiol and hexabenzylthioacetate [6]cavitands. The conformational properties of all compounds are discussed.
