Herein we present the synthesis and evaluation of anion-binding properties of 12 new receptors from the unclosed cryptand family. Their core is built on the stable 26-membered tetraamidic macrocyclic scaffold, whereas various alkyl and aryl urea substituents were introduced after a yield-limiting macrocyclization step (65-98%). The receptors strongly bind anions, in particular carboxylates, even in a highly competitive solvent mixture (DMSO- d 6 + H 2 O 95:5 v/v).
