67. This lack of ability of meso-dodecamethylcalix[6]pyrrole 2 to bind iodide suggests that the significant complexing ability of the 1,1,3,3,5,5-meso-hexaphenyl-2,2,4,4,6,6-meso-hexamethylcalix[6]pyr-role described by Eichen (see reft [10b]) towards this anion is essentially due to the presence of the phenyl groups.
68. This unusual coupling between the NH protons in the host and the fluoride guest has been previously observed: a) at low temperatures for calix[4]pyrrole 1 (ref. [3c]); and b) in meso-aryl substituted calix[4]pyrroles: S. Camiolo, P. A. Gale, Chem. Commun. 2000. 1129-1130.

71. The presence of just two pyrrole NH units placed more closely than in 12 has, however, been shown to bind fluoride: C.B. Black, B. Andrioletti, A. C. Try, C. Ruipirez, J. L. Sessler, J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1999, 121, 10438-10439.
