Abstract:The two chelates based on calix [4]arene and thiacalix [4]arene have been synthesized and used as neutral ionophores for preparing PVC based membrane sensor selective to Ho 3+ ion. The addition of potassium tetrakis(4-chlorophenyl)borate (KTpClPB) and various plasticizers, viz., NDPE, o-NPOE, DOP, TEP and DOS have been found to improve significantly the performance of the sensors. The best performance was obtained with the sensor no. 6 having membrane of L 2 with composition (w/w) ionophore (2%): KTpClPB (4%):… Show more
“…Gupta et al 164 developed p-tert-butyl thiacalix [4]arene 1 and de-tert-butylated thiacalix [4]arene 7 fabricated PVC-based electroactive materials for the selective detection of Cd 2+ ions with a response time of 8 s. Furthermore, compounds 17b 165 and 161 166 were used in poly(vinyl chloride) membranes for optical sensing of different cations (Fig. 43).…”

Thiacalixarenes, a subclass of "third generation" calixarenes, exhibit many interesting features such as enlarged ring size, facile chemical modification, and metal complexation due to the presence of bridging sulfur atoms. The thiacalixarene scaffold is a unique host with vast possibilities for functionalization not only at the upper and lower rim but also at the bridging sulfide groups. Modified thiacalixarenes have been used for many applications such as the detection and separation of biologically important cations, anions, and bio-analytes, mimicking molecular logic gates and devices, and synthesis of self-assembled coordination cages, multinuclear complexes, magnetic materials and luminescent materials. This review article summarizes recent developments in the derivatization methods of thiacalixarenes and their utilization in various applications.

“…In past years, analytical chemists have shown their interest to develop the selective devices based on neutral ionic carrier for the determination of cations [5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15] . Ion-selective electrode (ISE) is one of them.…”
Abstract:The main aim of this work is to improve the lower detection limit of cadmium selective polymeric membrane. The sensor was fabricated by using thiacalixarene derivative 5,11,17,23-tetratert-butyl-25,27-bis-[(3′-methoxy phenyl)methoxy]-26, 28-dihydroxy-2,8,14,20-tetrathiacalix [4]arene as ionophore. The membrane with composition of ionophore: PVC: DMP: NaTPB of 3.5% : 33% : 1.0% : 62.5% (w/v) has a standard detection limit of 1.0x10 -8 M and lowest possible detection limit of 6.2x10 -9 M. The electrode exhibits Nernstian response with slope 35.3±1 mV decade -1 of activity in linear concentration range of 4.2x10 -8 to 1.0x10 -1 M for Cd 2+ ion, performs satisfactorily over wide pH range (1.5-7.0), with a fast response time (5s). The selectivity coefficients determined by using fixed interference method (FIM) indicate high selectivity for Cd2+ as compared to other tested cations. The practicable utility of electrode has been demonstrated in the titration of Cd 2+ with standard EDTA solution. The proposed electrode was successfully used for the determination of Cd 2+ in different biological and environmental samples.
