杯芳烃合成及化学修饰研究进展

Research Progress in Synthesis and Chemical Modification of Calixarenes

杯芳烃是一类由苯酚单元与甲醛缩合而成的大环化合物,这类化合物具有易修饰、空腔大小可调、对离子或分子客体均能识别等特性,日益受到人们的重视,被认为是继冠醚,环糊精之后的第三代主体化合物。功能化杯芳烃衍生物在生命科学,环保工程,医药技术等领域有广阔的应用前景。本文就杯芳烃的合成及化学修饰进行了研究。

Calixarenes,which are basket-shaped macrocyclic compounds of potential interest for hostguest complexation studies,represent the new type of receptor after cyclodextrins and crown ethers.Due to their easy functionalization and strong complexing properties towards cations,anions and neutral molecules,they have received particular interests of numerous chemists in recent years.Functional calixarenes have been applied successfully to biomimetic research and separation science and technology.The research progress in synthesis and chemical modification of calixarenes is reviewed.
