Abstract
The synthesis, spectroscopic characterization and preliminary complexation properties of functionalized calix[4]pyrroles are described. To date, two generalized preparative approaches have been pursued (i) modifying the basic pyrrole-plus-ketone synthesis of calix[4]pyrrole by using microwave irradiation protocol, (ii) the basic meso-tetra(methyl) meso-tetra(p-nitrophenyl) calix[4]pyrrole skeleton was functionalized to give hydroxamic acids, especially in the meso-position of the macrocycles. The structures of novel calix[4]pyrrole hydroxamic acid derivatives were confirmed on the basis of various physico-chemical techniques such as elemental analysis, FT-IR, 1H NMR and FAB-Mass. The results of preliminary studies on the extraction of vanadium (V) with the host calix[4]pyrrole hydroxamic acids were elucidated by significant examination of UV–Vis spectroscopy and ICP-AES. Single crystal structure of basic meso-tetra(methyl) meso-tetra (p-nitro phenyl) calix[4]pyrrole moiety has also been reported.
