Perkin communications. Cationic water-soluble calixarenes: new host molecules which catalyse basic hydrolysis of a phosphate ester

Abstract
New water-soluble calixarenes (1) having cationic charges on the upper rim of the calixarene cavity have been synthesized: they act as efficient catalytic hosts for basic hydrolysis of a phosphate ester which proceeds according to Michaelis–Menten kinetics.
