The present book primarily deals with the lower rim substituted calix[4]arene derivatives and their metal ion complexes, and the biomimetic and biological studies of these complexes. Broadly, the book could be divided into the following three parts: (i) The K+ was found to act as template in the formation of calix[4]arene tetra-amide derivative exclusively, with the generation of calix[4]arene-monoanion and the structure of this has been characterized by single crystal XRD study. (ii) Metal ion complexes of p-tert-butylcalix[4]arene-diacid with Mn(II), Mn(IV), Fe(III), Co(II),...
