Abstract
Seven OH-free and O-permethylated monofunctionalized calix[5]arenes carrying either additional methyl or tert-butyl groups are prepared following fragment condensation protocols. This strategy proves to be superior to previous approaches. Calix[5]arenes with free OH groups all adopt a cone conformation stabilized by a seam of hydrogen bonds at the lower rim. Post-condensation modifications, i.e., methylation of phenolic OH groups or functional group interconversions can also be achieved. Bulky tert-butyl groups are also found to stabilize the cone conformations of O-methylated compounds. These compounds offer versatile functional groups that make these concave molecules interesting building blocks for the synthesis of more sophisticated molecular architectures.

- 26 In principle, one can also use other high-boiling hydrocarbons like xylene, mesitylene, decalin, or tetralin as solvents for the fragment condensation. However, we obtained higher yields in toluene compared to xylene.
- 27 MS/MS experiments revealed that, indeed, a calix[10]arene is formed rather than a catenane composed of two mechanically interlocked calix[5]arenes.
