Abstract

10α,20α-di(4-aminophenyl)calix[4]pyrroles were synthesized from the acid catalyzed cyclization of dialkyldipyrromethanes with p-nitroacetophenone and sequential hydrogenation of nitro group, which in turn reacted with several aromatic aldehydes and pyridinecarboxaldehydes as well as isocyanates to give a series of calix[4]pyrrole 10α,20α-disubstituted Schiff base and urea derivatives. The crystal structures of the newly-formed calix[4]pyrrole Schiff bases were successfully determined by X-ray diffraction. The complexing property of calix[4]pyrrole Schiff bases for transition metal ions was also investigated with UV–Vis spectroscopy.
