ABSTRACT: The most simple method for
solventless synthesis of supramolecular complex of CMCR·2BPY·BZP, [CMCR = C-methylcalix[4]resorcinarene,
BPY = 4,4'-bipyridine, BZP = benzophenone], is proposed. Although CMCR by
itself is high melting point compound (above 300°C), CMCR was found to be
dissolved in melt mixture of BPY and BZPeven below 120°C. In the mixture of the
three components, the reaction occurs to form CMCR·2BPY·BZP supramolecular
complex.
