Acid-catalysed condensation of resorcinol with aromatic aldehydes results in 2,8,14,20-tetrasubstitued calix[4] areneoctols. Sixteen compounds of this type containing different aromatic substituents were synthesized. The ring closure step, under the conditions of the reaction, is a reversible process. Four configurations are possible for every constitution, viz. cccc, cctt, ccct and ctct, but only cccc and cctt were formed in detectable amounts. In seven cases the thermodynamically more stable cccc isomers (1a-5a, 7a, 8a) and also the kinetically controlled cctt isomers (1b-5b, 7b, 8b) could be isolated. The configurations of the compounds were assigned by temperature-dependent 1H NMR analysis. The conformational motions of the macrocyclic ring permit only the cccc isomers to show coalescence for the signals of the aromatic Hb protons. The coalescence temperature was determined for isomers 1a (ΔG384≠ = 83·5 kJmol-1) and 3a (ΔG369≠ = 83·7 kJ mol-1). For steric reasons the ‘chair-chair’ conformers B and the ‘quasi-boat-chair’ conformers F are favoured. 1H and 13C NMR shifts show that compounds 1a-5a and 1b-5b have a quasi-axial arrangement of the aromatic substituents, whereas 6-9 have a quasi-equatorial arrangement of the substituents.
