Abstract

In acetonitrile, the tren-N-tricalix[4]arene 4 with three appended pyrenyl groups showed an enhanced fluorescence in the presence of Al³⁺ and, to a lesser extent, of In³⁺. Compound 4 was shown to form a 1:1 complex with Al³⁺, the metal cation being located in the tren part. The association constant (K_a) of 4 for the Al³⁺ cation was calculated to be 8.7×10³ M^-1 in acetonitrile.
