Journal ArticleDOI

Multifunctional Efficiency: Extending the Concept of Atom Economy to Functional Nanomaterials

TL;DR: This Perspective highlights examples showing how the combination of the properties of MOFs and induced systematic modifications and functionalizations of the MOF's scaffold itself lead to a nanocarrier with high multifunctional efficiency.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fine tuning of crystal architecture by intermolecular interactions: synthon engineering

TL;DR: In this article, a series of calixarene crystal structures where the crystal packing is determined by spatial or by electrostatic effects is presented where both steric requirements and electrostatic forces play a role in the crystal architecture shows how the supramolecular synthon can be engineered.
Journal ArticleDOI

Conformational behaviour and first crystal structures of a calix[4]arene featuring a laterally positioned carboxylic acid function in unsolvated and solvent-complexed forms

TL;DR: In this article, a detailed conformational analysis of a rarely investigated type of compound, a laterally monosubstituted calix[4]arene (1, which has a carboxylic acid function in the lateral position), is reported.
Journal ArticleDOI

Influence of laterally attached alkyl groups on the conformational behaviour of a basic calix[4]arene: combined NMR, molecular mechanics and X-ray study

TL;DR: In this article, three new calixarenes 3-5 featuring an alkyl residue of different chain lengths attached to one of the central ring methylene groups of the basic calix[4]arene 1 have been prepared.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bridge-substituted calix[4]arenes: syntheses, conformations and application

TL;DR: The bridge-substituted calix[4]arene carboxylic acid, 5,11,17,23-tetra-tert-butyl-25,26,27,28-Tetramethoxy-calix[1], can be readily converted to various esters 2-4 and reduced to the alcohol 5, which reacts with methyl iodide to give the ether 6.
