Tetranitro-oxacalix[4]arenes 1–5, prepared by direct SNAr reaction of 1,5-difluoro-2,4dinitrobenzene with the appropriate aromatic diol (pyrocatechol, resorcinol, hydroquinone, 2,7dihydroxynaphthalene, and 4,4 ́-dihydroxybiphenyl), were subjected to Raney-nickel reduction to provide the corresponding tetraamino-oxacalix[4]arenes 6–10, which upon treatment with an excess of 1-octyl isocyanate were converted into the title compounds 11–15, featuring a pair of 1,3-bis-[N-(1-octyl)ureido]phenylene moieties doubly connected at their 4,6-positions by rigid spacers of varied geometry. All new oxacalix[4]arenes were characterized by MALDI-TOF spectrometry and NMR spectroscopy. H NMR data and ab initio calculations support saddleshaped conformations for oxacalix[4]arenes incorporating pyrocatechol, resorcinol and 2,7dihydroxynaphthalene nucleophilic components, and boat-shaped conformations for derivatives possessing hydroquinone and 4,4 ́-dihydroxybiphenyl spacers.
