Comparative Study of the Antioxidant Activity of the Conformers of C-tetra(4-methoxyphenyl)calix[4]resorcinarene

C-tetra(4-methoxyphenyl)calix[4]resorcinarene was synthesized by hydrochloric acid-catalysed cyclocondensation of resorcinol and 4-methoxybenzaldehyde. Under these conditions, the reaction produces a conformational mixture of crown and chair structural conformers, which were separated and characterized by chromatographic and spectroscopic techniques. The antioxidant activity of both conformers was measured by using the DPPH assay, through which it was observed that the chair conformer showed greater antioxidant activity (IC50 = 47.46 ppm) than the crown conformer (IC50 = 78.46 ppm). Additionally, it was observed that the mixture of both conformers presented lower antioxidant activity than either conformer in isolation. The results found suggest that the chair conformer has efficient antioxidant activity that makes it a potential target for further research.

Photophysical, Antioxidant, Antibacterial and NBO, LOL, ELF Analysis of Alkyl Groups Substituted Calix[4]resorcinarenes

In our work to investigate the photophysical, antioxidant, antibacterial, DFT and topological analysis of four C-alkyl calix[4]resorcinarenes (3a-3d - C4RAs). The photophysical properties of C4RAs in selected solvents were recorded using both UV-Visible and fluorescence spectral studies. The absorption and emission maximum of four C4RAs were observed around 280 nm and 318 nm in selected solvents. The solvatochromism with selected solvents were analysed from the plot between Stoke's shift and ETN. The antioxidant activity and antibacterial activity of four C4RAs were evaluated by phosphomolybdate assay and Kirby-Bauer method. The structure of four C4RAs was optimized using DFT B3LYP 6-311G method to calculating the various theoretical parameters in the gas phase. The stability, reactivity, formation of hydrogen bond, donor-acceptor interactions were reported from the interpretation of theoretical values. The non-covalent interactions of four C4RAs were characterized by LOL and ELF topological analysis.

In our work to investigate the photophysical, antibacterial, theoretical and topological analysis of four C-alkyl calix[4]resorcinarenes (C4RAs). The solvatochromism and photophysical properties of C4RAs in different solvents were recorded in both UV-Visible and fluorescence spectral studies. The total antioxidant capacity and antibacterial activity of four C4RAs were evaluated by phosphomolybdate assay and kirby-bauer method. Theoretical parameters such as HOMO, LUMO, energy gap and Mulliken atomic charges and NBO were optimized by DFT B3LYP 6-311G method. From the results of HOMO and LUMO energies were used to determine the theoretical parameters of four C4RAs. The nucleophilic and electrophilic substitution reactivity of four C4RAs were analyzed by molecular electrostatic potential map analysis. Natural bonding orbital analysis was used to determine the intramolecular charge transfer within the energy difference between acceptor and donor orbitals. The non-covalent interactions of four C4RAs were characterized by LOL and ELF topological analysis.

Synthesis of calixresorcarenes using magnetic poly triazine-benzene sulfonamide-SO3H

The purpose of this work is to develop a magnetically recyclable immobilized base catalyst for the green synthesis of calixresorcarenes. To achieve this, poly triazine-benzene sulfonamide (PTBSA) has been coated on magnetic Fe₃O₄ nanoparticles and subsequently chlorosulfonic acid has been supported to obtain Fe₃O₄@PTBSA-SO₃H. The structure of nano-Fe₃O₄@PTBSA-SO₃H was characterized by TEM, XRD, FT-IR, VSM, WDX, EDX, TGA/DSC and FE-SEM. The catalytic efficiency of this catalyst was also investigated in the synthesis of novel calixresorcarene derivatives. The advantages of heterogeneous nature, catalytic activity and the recyclability of the polymer support were also strengthened by advanced surface treatment. These key factors (basic sites, acidic sites and heterogeneity) play essential roles in the catalyst performance. This procedure has some advantages such as short reaction time, clean and fast work-up and easy separation of the catalyst by an external magnet.

Magnetic poly triazine-benzene sulfonamide-SO₃H was investigated for the synthesis of calixresorcarenes.
