Calixarenes and Fullerenes

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Calixarenes and Beyond

Abstract

Since the seminal contemporaneous discovery by Atwood and Shinkai in 1994 that p-tert-butylcalix[8]arene could sequester and thus purify C60 from fullerite, the supramolecular relationships between bowl-shaped calixarenes and the fullerenes have continued to stimulate the interest of chemists. This review presents and summarizes the literature pertaining to calixarenes and C60 and C70 which has appeared since the end of 2000. The present review will also only focus mostly on examples in which calix[n]arenes, related molecules and their functionalized derivatives have been mainly associated with “pristine” C60 and C70 fullerenes.
