Abstract

The host-guest interaction of C-methylresorcin[4]arene and its derivative having four tert-butylsulfanylmethyl groups at the extra-annular positions was studied by 1H NMR spectroscopy in CD3OD. Based on the association constants (Ka) and the complexation-induced NMR shifts (CIS), it was concluded that the bulky substituents create a deep cavity with a narrow entrance and improve the size and shape selectivity.
