Abstract

Reaction of 5,11,17,23-tetra-tert-butyl-dihydroxy-26,28-bis(2-pentoxy)calix[4]arene (L(OH)2(Opentyl)2) with [TiCl4] afforded the dichlorotitanoacalix[4]arene complex [TiCl2L(O)2(Opentyl)2] (1) in good yield. Hydrolysis of 1 led to the isolation of the complex {[TiL(O)3(Opentyl)]2(μ-OH)(μ-Cl)} (2). Reaction of 5,11,17,23,29,35,41,47-p-tert-butyl-49,50,51,52,53,54,55,56-octapropoxycalix[8]arene (L′(Opropyl)8) with [TiCl4] in refluxing toluene afforded, following work-up, a 35:65 mixture (3) of the complex [Ti(NCMe)Cl]2[TiCl(μ-O)]2L′ and the silicone grease derived complex [Ti(NCMe)Cl]2[Ti(μ-O)]2[OSi(CH3)2OSi(CH3)2O]L′ in which the grease replaces two chloride ligands. The molecular structures of 1·2MeCN, 2·7MeCN, and 3·10MeCN have been determined. The complexes were studied using in vitro cell assays and were found to have CC50 values in the range 111-186 μM, i.e. they have low toxicity.
