Abstract

A p-tertbutylcalix4arene derivative was synthesized from a reaction of the diisothiocyanate p-tertbutylcalix4arene, obtaining crystals that were then characterized by mass spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The molecule presents two acid carbamothioic-n-ethoxy-methyl-ester substituent groups. Through crystallization of this compound, it was also found that it includes a methanol molecule within the aromatic cavity. The inclusion of the methanol molecule is due to favorable CH center dot center dot center dot pi interactions.
