Phenylenedioxydiacetamides are examples of noncyclic ionophors that are able to form 2:1 complexes with the cations Ca2+ and K+ in acetone, methylene chloride or acetonitrile solution. The chelation abilities and coordination modes of 12 derivatives were investigated systematically by IR, 1H NMR and 13C NMR spectroscopy. The results indicate that only the 1,2-phenylenedioxydiacetam ides function as ligands; while the 1,3-derivatives do not coordinate. The ionophors 1-8 act as tetradentate chelating ligands with all four oxygen atoms involved in bonding to the cation. Irrespective of its charge, each cation is coordinated by two ionophors.
