Preparation and Properties of Calix[4]arene-Based Epoxy Resins

摘要

Calix[4]arene macrocycles are the subject for increasing interest in the field of supramolecular chemistry and host-guest chemistry as basic skeletons for the synthesis of host compounds for ions or neutral molecules.Although quite a large number of reports exists on the molecular calix[4] are-nes,those on polymeric precursors are limited.Recently,calix[4]arene-based polymers have just begun to receive attention,as these new polymers may then be processed into materials suitable for the chemical sensor devices such as ion selective electrodes and filtration/extraction membranes.
