Calixarenes as potential lonophores for Thallium lonselective electrodes

The first part of this thesis reports the synthesis of five calixarene molecules and their incorporation into ISEs as thallium(I) selective ionophores for use in clinical and environmental analysis. Four calix[4]arene molecules were successfully synthesized. Two were isolated in the cone conformatio...
