Synthesis of mixed heterocalixarenes from benzofuranyl methanols and activated indoles.
Mixed heterocalix[3]arenes and heterocalix[4]arenes containing indole and benzofuran rings can be synthesised via acid-catalysed reactions of benzofuranyl methanols and activated indoles: these new calixarene types are of interest as potential molecular receptors.
