According to the 1H NMR and X-ray data, the outer-sphere association of [Co(dipy)3]3+ with cyclophanic anions p-sulfonatothiacalix[4]arene and tetrasulfonatomethylated calix[4]resorcinarene is accompanied by the inclusion of the dipyridyl moiety of the former into the cavities of the cyclophanic anions in aqueous and aqueous-DMSO solutions and in the solid state. The first-step dissociation of p-sulfonatothiacalix[4]arene does not change the inclusion mode, but the increase in DMSO content leads to a shallower inclusion of [Co(dipy)3]3+. The electrochemical property changes of [Co(dipy)3]3+ with both receptors undergoing ion pairing indicate the stabilization of the tris(dipyridyl) cobalt complexes in lower oxidation states. The effect of the cyclophanic anions on the cyclic voltammograms of [Co(dipy)3]3+ correlates with the efficiency of binding of the latter with tetrasulfonatomethylated calix[4]resorcinarene and p-sulfonatothiacalix[4]arene.
