Two calix [4] arene derivatives (3 and 4) functionalised at the lower rim with pendant benzamide arms were successfully synthesised and characterised, with the X-ray crystal structure of 3 being determined. Only 4 took part in some metal ion complexation reactions, namely those involving metal (II) acetate salts, with metals salts containing other anions not being complexed.
