Aggregation and Adsorption Properties of Tetramethylsulfonatoresorcinarenes and their Associates with Nonionogenic Guest Molecules in Aqueous Solutions

Present paper reports on tensiometric studies of tetramethylsulfonatoresorcinarenes 1 and 2 with nonionogenic guests 3 and 4, pyrimidin derivative and O,O-dymethyl-1,1-dimethyl-3-oxobutylphosphonate, respectively. Association of resorcinarenes with these guests leads to dramatic change of adsorption characteristics of their solutions. CCMs1 of associates (1&3, 1&4, 2&3, and 2&4) are lower and the estimated surface activity, as well as the height of adsorption layers are higher than for individual substances. Aggregation of compounds 1–4 and association of 1 with 3 and 4 in solution were confirmed by 1H NMR spectra and studied by diffusion NMR with impulse magnetic field gradient.
