Methylation of 5,11,17,23-tetranitrothiacalix[4]arene with diazomethane leads to the tetramethoxy derivative, which was studied using single-crystal X-ray crystallography. It revealed that this compound, albeit in the 1,3-alternate conformation, can form the inclusion complexes with various solvent molecules possessing acidic methyl groups (ethyl acetate, nitromethane, acetone, acetonitrile) and creates interesting infinite channels filled with solvent molecules. The subsequent transformation of nitro groups into the ureido moieties gave receptors capable of anion recognition even in a highly HB-competitive solvent like DMSO.
