Abstract

Poly- and bis(crown ether)s which contain the relatively large crown ether ring of benzo-21-crown-7 were synthesized, and their cation-binding properties for alkali metal cations were elucidated by solvent extraction and also conductometrically. The cation-binding ability was found to decrease in the order Cs+>Rb+>K+>Na+. They can extract alkali metal cations more efficiently than the corresponding monomeric analogue. The binding behaviour for some organic cations such as alkyl ammonium and guanidinium is also described.
