On the synthesis of new amphiphilic entities by the succinic coupling of [beta]-cyclodextrins to calixarenes

Summary:Cyclodextrins (CD) and calixarenes (CAL), two important classes of compounds in inclusion chemistry, demonstrate different, but complementary affinities. CD are hydrophilic and amphiphilic, while CAL are insoluble in water. In search for new methods of construction of amphiphilic species from CDs, the system of a CD and a CAL-crown coupled together were considered. Jankowski et al report on the synthesis of the CD-CAL-crown compounds, starting with these tetranitro derivatives 4 and 5, and coupling them to beta-CD 3 through a succinic diamide linker.
