Abstract
We demonstrated the organization of two differently sized calixarenes C-methylresorcin[4]arene (RsC1) and either calix[6]arene (Calix6) or calix[8]arene (Calix8), where the lower rim of RsC1 partially overlaps with the upper rim of Calix6 or Calix8. An adaptive nature of the heteromacrocyclic assembly towards the binding of a model guest has been observed.
