Chemoselective acylation of monosubstituted thiacalix[4]arene with di-tert-butyl dicarbonate

Resumo

Mono-, di-, and tetrasubstituted derivatives of p-tert-butylthiacalix[4]arene containing tert-butylcarbamate, tert-butylcarbonate, and tert-butyl fragments have been prepared for the first time. Depending on the reaction conditions (reagents ratio, temperature, and the presence of a base), the interaction of the monoamine derivative of p-tert-butylthiacalix[4]arene with di-tert-butyl dicarbonate can lead to the formation of mono-, di-, and tetrasubstituted products.
