To study the structures and reactivities of alkali metallated intermediates of calix[4]arenes, three compounds were isolated: Li(4)(p-tert-butylcalix[4]arene-4H)(thf)(4).6 THF (1), [Li(2)(p-tert-butylcalix[4]arene-2H)(H(2)O)(mu-H(2)O)(thf)].3 THF (2), and K(4)(p-tert-butylcalix[4]arene-4H)(thf)(5).THF (3). The structure of 1 is shown to be dependent on the coordinating solvent. Partial hydrolysis of 1 leads to the formation of 2. The potassium compound 3 features a different structure to that of 1, due to a higher coordination number as well as stronger cation-pi-bonding interactions.
为研究杯[4]芳烃碱金属化中间体的结构和反应活性,分离出了三种化合物:Li(4)(对叔丁基杯[4]芳烃-4H)(thf)(4).6 THF (1)、[Li(2)(对叔丁基杯[4]芳烃-2H)(H₂O)(μ-H₂O)(thf)].3 THF (2) 和 K(4)(对叔丁基杯[4]芳烃-4H)(thf)(5).THF (3)。结果表明,1的结构取决于配位溶剂。1的部分水解导致2的形成。钾化合物3具有与1不同的结构,这是由于其配位数更高以及阳离子-π键相互作用更强。
