terr-Butylcalix[4]arene A nions, rm -Butylcalix[4]arenes (Phosphorus-Substituted), Phospho nium Salts (Tetramethylguanidine-Substituted), X-Ray DataThe
reactions o f ter/-butylcalix[4]arene (1) and the phosphorus-substituted rm -butylcalix-[4]arene (2), respectively, with terf-butylbis[N-(N',N',N",N"-tetramethyl)guanidinyl]phosphine (3) led to the first calix[4]arene-anions with the protonated phosphonium cations 4 and 5. N o protonation o f the imino nitrogen atom was observed.In the case o f compound 4, a single crystal X-ray structure analysis has been conducted. In compound 5, phosphorus atoms in the oxidation states +III and +V are present in one molecule.
