Redox-active calixarene-based receptors are prepd. wherein ferrocene fragments were introduced at the lower rim through anion-binding urea or amide connections by the condensation reaction of 1,3-bis(amino)calixarene and ferrocene propanoic acid. A thorough 1H NMR study on calixarene-ferrocene receptors were performed to est. their H bonding-driven self-assocn. properties and improve the understanding of the correlation between mol. structures and redox properties.
