ITC and NMR spectroscopy binding studies of meso- octamethyl-calix[4]pyrrole and its derivatives

This dissertation reports on the recent discovery that calix[4]pyrrole not only functions as an anion receptor, but also has the ability to act as an ion pair receptor. It was discovered that in the solid state large diffuse cations, such as Cs+ and imidazolium, will occupy the electron-rich cone-l...
