Until the 196Os, complexation of alkali and alkaline earth metal cations was problematic.
Although such Ca2+ binders as ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid, EDTA, were well known …

The interaction of alkali metal ions with arenes such as benzene or substituted benzenes
has been documented in a variety of ways. This paper reviews the experimental evidence …

Nitrogen-pivot lariat ethers of varying ring sizes can be prepared by cyclization of an amine
or appropriately substituted diol. Twelve-membered-ring nitrogen-pivot lariat ethers were …

Cation-π interactions of alkali metals with arenes have been known in the gas phase for two
decades but solid-state structural data have become available only recently. The quest for …

Ten,-disubstituted derivatives of 4, 13-diaza-18-crown-6 (7) have been prepared, three of
which exhibit Ca2+, over either Na+ or K+, selectivity. This selectivity has been achievedby …

The electrically neutral compounds (including solvents and crowns) have been denoted by
capital letters while the anions use lower-case letters; the crown-related macrocycles have …

X-ray crystal structure data are presented for K+ complexes of A'-allylmonoaza-18-crown-6
(1) monohydrate [K+ C 5-allyl-H20], 7V, 7V'-bis (3-oxabutyl) diaza-18-crown-6 (2)[K+ C1-22 …

The electronic behavior of 14 electron-deficient aromatic systemshas been determined by
cyclic voltammetric techniques in both the absence and presence of Li+, Na+, and K+. The …

The synthesis of three macrocycles, containing four pyrazolic units, with different side arms
is described and the crystal structure of one of the intermediate compounds is also …

Conclusions Thermally initiated polymerization of bilayermembranes of-MA and- gave
polymers with retention of the vesicle structure. The mean size distribution of the colloidal …
