Abstract

A new lithium receptor based on the combination of the [11] macrocyclic core and two catechol units was designed and prepared. The binding ability of the ligand towards boron and lithium was demonstrated in solution by NMR and in the solid state by an X-ray analysis of the lithiumborocryptate.© 1997 Elsevier Science Ltd.
