The effect of reaction time and steric hindrance of the primary amines used on the reactions have been investigated. All the amide derivatives of calix[ 4] arene are in a cone conformation according to the H-1-NMR doublet-doublet pattern of the protons of the methylene groups between the aromatic rings. The complexing properties of these compounds toward selected alkali and alkaline earth metal cations are also studied. It has been observed that receptor 8 is a selective extractant for Cs+ and Sr2+ cations.en10.1080/10601320601030715info:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessalkali and alkaline earth metal cationsdiamidecalix[4]arenemonoamidesolvent extractionArticle442159165Q2WOS:000243542100006Q3
