title: Partial aminomethylation of resorcarenes.
abstract: Aminomethylation of resorcarenes at the wider rim with bulky diisopropylamine and formaline leads to trisubstituted derivatives. Analogous reaction with C(2v)-symmetrical resorcarene tetratosylate gives the monoaminomethylated compound. Further reactions of remaining unsubstituted resorcinol rings result in new resorcarene derivatives. [reaction: see text]
