Calixarene-supported rare-earth clusters: heteroatom bridge influences cluster composition.
Rare-earth octahedra have been previously synthesised using p-tert-butylcalix[4]arene as a cluster support. Introduction of a heteroatom bridge in the calixarene framework, with concomitant alteration to the nature of the metal binding pocket, influences lanthanide composition in the cluster.
