Attempts at Pd-catalyzed bridging in sulfoxide-bearing calixarenes containing various substituents/n(phenyl, ethyl, pyrimidin-2-yl) gave the expected compound only in the case of the ethyl derivative./nHowever, the reaction of sulfoxides with BuLi revealed the ability of the pyrimidin-2-yl group to function unexpectedly as a leaving group. This enabled, depending on the reaction conditions, preparation of unique bis-calixarenes connected together via two sulfur atoms spacers: eSeSe, eS(O)eSe or eS(O)2eSe. As documented by 1H NMR titrations these compounds, otherwise not easily accessible by common synthetic methods, showed recognition ability towards selected cations of the N-methylpyridinium type.
