✦ Synopsis

Solid-state complexes between para-sulphonatocalix[4]arene and a wide variety of organic cations, especially those containing amino groups are studied due to their potential applications. The structures of the complexes between para-sulphonatocalix[4]arene and norspermidine and triethyltetramine show the expected hydrogen bonding interactions between the ammonium and sulfonate groups.
