title: Introduction of glyco, peptido, carboxy, and alkyno substituents at the calixarene exo rim via the p-bromodienone route.
abstract: The conceptually novel "p-bromodienone route", which allows the direct introduction of nucleophiles at the calixarene exo rim, has been extended to anionic C-nucleophiles (acetylides) to give chiral meta-substituted alkynocalix[4]arenes and to appropriate O-nucleophiles to obtain para-substituted glyco, peptido, and carboxy derivatives.
