biostudies-literatureUnknown23(5)Casas-Hinestroza JLReaction between pyrogallol and benzaldehyde results in a conformational mixture of C-tetra(phenyl)pyrogallol[4]arene (crown and chair). The conformer mixture was separated using crystallization procedures and the structures were determined using FTIR, ¹H-NMR, and 13C-NMR. O-acetylation of C-tetra(phenyl)pyrogallol[4]arene (chair) with acetic anhydride, in pyridine results in the formation of dodecaacetyl-tetra(phenyl)pyrogallol[4]arene. The structure was determined using ¹H-NMR and 13C-NMR finding that the product maintains the conformation of the starting conformer. On the other hand, the O-acetylation reaction of C-tetra(phenyl)pirogallol[4]arene (crown) under same conditions proceeded efficiently, and its structure was determined using ¹H-NMR and 13C-NMR. Dynamic ¹H-NMR of acetylated pyrogallolarene was studied by means of variable temperature in DMSO-d₆ solution, and it revealed that two conformers are formed in the solution. Boat conformations for acetylated pyrogallolarene showed a slow interconversion at room temperature.Molecules (Basel, Switzerland)E1225https://www.ebi.ac.uk/biostudies/studies/S-EPMC6100403biostudies-literatureConformational Aspects of the O-acetylation of C-tetra(phenyl)calixpyrogallol[4]arene.PMC6100403Casas-Hinestroza JLMaldonado MfalseConformational Aspects of the O-acetylation of C-tetra(phenyl)calixpyrogallol[4]arene.Reaction between pyrogallol and benzaldehyde results in a conformational mixture of C-tetra(phenyl)pyrogallol[4]arene (crown and chair).
