Abstract
Calix[n]arenes – are easily accessible three-dimensional macrocyclic compounds. Modified calix[n]arenes capable with high selectivity recognize, bind in supramolecular complexes and separate substrates of similar properties such as cations, anions, gases, neutral organic molecules, and biomolecules. This review summarizes data on application as radionuclide extractants and sorbents, sensitive layer of chemosensors, porous materials for gases sorption, chromatography phases for (chiral) separation, stereoselective catalysts of organic reactions, resist for nanolithography, selective modulators of ATP-dependent pumps in smooth muscle cells, inhibitors of therapeutically important enzymes, vectors for gene transfection, fluorescent markers for cell imaging and “molecular glue” for protein crystallization of the functional calixarenes. Special attention in the paper is addressed to the application of the phosphorus-containing calixarenes in radiochemistry, chiral catalysis and bio-medicine.
Keywords: Calixarenes, supramolecules, radionuclides, chemosensors, stereoselective catalysis, fluorescent markers.

Simulation, techno-economic analysis, and life cycle analysis of a biorefinery process are ...read more
Catalytic C-H bond activation as a tool for functionalization of heterocycles
The major topic is the functionalization of heterocycles through catalyzed C-H bond activation. The strategies based on C-H activation not only provide straightforward formation of C-C or C-X bonds but, more importantly, allow for the avoidance of pre-functionalization of one or two of the cross-coupling partners. The beneficial impact of ...read more
