Abstract

Monocyclic bis-(9, lO-anthracenediy1) coronands denoted AAO, O,(A=(9, lO-anthracenediyl, n indicating the number of ethyleneoxy repeating units between two aromatic rings) were designed as photoresponsive systems. Their synthesis is described; their spectroscopic properties were found to be in agreement with the X-ray structures. Special attention was devoted to AA0505, which gives coronates with Na+ and K+. It was observed that one ...
