Abstract
Tetraaryl and tetraferrocenyl resorcinarenes 1a–1d were fully alkylated with 1‐bromo‐3‐chloropropane or 4‐chlorobutyronitrile in refluxing acetone with potassium carbonate as base to give O‐3‐chloropropyl derivatives 2a–2d and O‐3‐cyanopropyl derivatives 3a–3d. The single crystal analysis shows that alkylresorcinarenes exist in an rccc (all cis) configuration and arylresorcinarenes in an rctt (cis‐trans‐trans) configuration. The electrochemical properties of tetraferrocenyl resorcinarenes were studied by cyclic voltammetry.

The acid-catalyzed (with HCl) condensation reactions of resorcinol ( ) with 1-naphthaldehyde (2) and isobutyraldehyde (3) furnished the tetrameric macrocyclic compounds 4 and 6. Detailed NMR-investigations of the acetylated tetrameric species 5 surprisingly support a structure not in agreement with
