Calix[6]arene mono-diazonium salt synthesis and covalent immobilization onto glassy carbon electrodes

Use of calixarenes bearing diazonium groups for the development of robust monolayers with unique tailored properties

Calixarene-based diazonium salts can be easily synthesized in a few steps. This review surveys recent examples that illustrate the key advantages of these highly reactive molecular platforms for surface modification.
