RESUMO
A method for the synthesis of calix[4 and 6]arenes with two or three alternately arranged phloroglucinols and p-tert-butylphenols was studied using "3+1" and "5+1" approaches, compared to a simple one-pot synthesis based on a "1+1" approach. By using Yb(OTf)3 as a catalyst, each calix[4 and 6]arenes was afforded, in an overall yield of 20.7% and 11.8% in the "3+1" and "5+1" approaches, respectively, and 24.6% and 19.9% using a "1+1" approach with chlorobenzene and toluene as refluxing solvents, respectively.
