Abstract
Due to their easy functionalization and their unique conformational and recognition properties, calixarenes are attracting molecular platforms for the elaboration of separation systems. Thus, in the last decades, these macrocyclic compounds have been subject to extensive research in analytical chemistry. This review is focused on the use of calixarenes as selectors in the chromatographic separation field. The structures of calixarene derivatives and their applications as stationary phases for gas chromatography as well as high-performance liquid chromatography are described.
Keywords: Calixarenes, chromatography, macrocycle, selector, separation mechanism, stationary phase.

Catalytic C-H bond activation as a tool for functionalization of heterocycles
The major topic is the functionalization of heterocycles through catalyzed C-H bond activation. The strategies based on C-H activation not only provide straightforward formation of C-C or C-X bonds but, more importantly, allow for the avoidance of pre-functionalization of one or two of the cross-coupling partners. The beneficial impact of ...read more
