A calixarene based metal organic material, calixMOM, that binds potassium cations.
A porous calixarene-based metal organic material, calixMOM-1, has been prepared by using a custom designed tetradentate thiacalixarene which links manganese molecular building blocks. Potassium ions were introduced into the cavity of the thiacalixarene to afford calixMOM-2. Gas sorption properties of both compounds were studied.
