A triple-probe channel type chemosensor based on an $NO_2S_2$-macrocycle functionalized with phenyltricyanovinyl group was synthesized and its sensing characteristics were examined. The pink-red solution of L changed selectively to pale yellow upon addition of $Hg^{2+}$. The selective fluorometric response of L to all the tested metal ions was studied. The results showed that a large enhancement of the fluorescence of L was observed only in the case of $Hg^{2+}$. In addition, L showed large anodic shift (~ 0.3 V) for the addition of excess $Hg^{2+}$. Through above three observed results by the different techniques, we confirmed that the proposed chemosensor acts as the multiple-probe channel sensing material. The crystal structure of mercury(II) nitrate complexs of L which shows a 1-D polymer network with a formula $[Hg_2(L)_2(NO_3)_2({\mu}-NO_3)_2]_n$ was also reported.

A chromo/fluorogenic $NO_2S_2$-macrocycle L functionalized with nitrobenzofurazan unit as a dual-signaling probe was synthesized and structurally characterized by single crystal X-ray analysis. In a cation-induced color change experiment, L exhibited excellent $Hg^{2+}$ ion selectivity by showing the color change from orange-red to yellow. However, this hypochromic shift by $Hg^{2+}$ was observed for the weaker coordinating anion system such as ${NO_3}^-$ and ${ClO_4}^-$ ions. The observed anion effect is due to the strong coordination of anions inhibits the bond formation between $Hg^{2+}$ and the macrocyclic tert-N atom, which is sensitive to induce the color change. In the fluorometric experiment, L showed chelate-enhanced fluorescence change effect only with $Hg^{2+}$ ion, together with a change from yellow to green emission. The sensing ability for $Hg^{2+}$ with the proposed chemosensor L is due to the stable complexation with 1:1 stoichiometry (metal-to-ligand).

The structure of Tetrapropionyloxycalix[4]arene(C40H40O8) has been studied by X-ray diffraction method. The crystal is monoclinic a=13.921(3), b=13.552(2), c=19.840(5)Å, β=110.38(2)°, Z=4 T=297K, Dc=1.23gcm-3, F(000)=1376, Systematic absences : hkl none, h0l : h+l=2n, 0k0: k=2n define space group P21/n. The structure was solved by direct method and refined by full-matrix least-squares methods to final R of 0.06 for 2514 observed reflections. The macrocycle exists in partial cone conformation. Three propionyl groups direct toward the exterior of the macrocycle cavity.

Absolute configuration of carboxylic acids, including amino acids can be determined by circular dichroism (CD) exciton chirality method. This method employs cyclic oligopyrroles able to form stable complexes with carboxylic acids. Addition of carboxylic acids to the oligopyrroles induce CD spectrum at the macrocycle absorption region and in which the sign of the $1^{st}$ Cotton effect is determined solely by the absolute configuration of the carboxylic acid. The basicity of the pyrrole nitrogen can be controlled by macrocycle substitution thus yielding more sensitive chirality sensors.

This work shows that both L2 and L3 bearing two and four N-$(CH_2)_2OCH_3$ groups, respectively, can be prepared selectively by the reaction of $L^1$ with 1-bromo-2-methoxyethane. The di-N-substituted macrocycle $L^2$ readily forms its copper(II) and nickel(II) complexes. The N-$(CH_2)_2OCH_3$ groups in $[CuL^2]^{2+}$ are coordinated to the metal ion, whereas those in $[NiL^2]^{2+}$ are not involved in coordination. Interestingly, $L^3$ reacts with $Cu^{2+}$ ion to form $[Cu(HL^3)]^{3+}$, in which one tertiary amino group is not involved in coordination.
