Abstract:

A p-tert-butylthiacalix[4]arene-based polydentated ligand with four Schiff base units on 1,3-alternate position at lower rim has been prepared in three steps, which coordinated to copper ion to form a novel dicopper complex. The structures of the polydentated thiacalixarene ligand and copper complex were fully characterized by spectroscopy and X-ray single crystal diffraction method.
