Abstract
A linearly linked triscalix[4]arene, in which each calix[4]arene unit possesses both axial chirality and inherent chirality, was synthesized by repeated use of two stereoselective Williamson etherification on calix[4]arene. In the crystal lattice of the biscalix[4]arene intermediate, there are interesting alternate layers of biscalixarene molecules and solvent molecules in the ab plane.
