Abstract
Chemical double mutant cycles were used to measure the interaction of a N-methyl pyridinium cation with a π-box in a calix[4]pyrrole receptor. Although the cation-π interaction is attractive (-11 kJ mol-1), it is 7 kJ mol-1 less favourable than the corresponding aromatic interaction with the isosteric but uncharged tolyl group.
