33. a ≈ 7.0 for the last two deprotonation steps. Thus, at neutral pH, it seems probable that each calixarene unit carries no more than one positive charge. This value might be slightly altered by the considerable methanol content in most solvent mixtures.
34. Dilution and variable temperature NMR experiments with 1a produced only small chemical shift changes; dynamic light scattering (D. Joester, M. Losson, R. Pugin, H. Heinzelmann, E. Walter, H. P. Merkle, F. Diederich, Angew. Chem. 2003, 115, 1524-1528;

40. The minor groove of RNA is much more shallow, but has the same diameter as its major groove. It cannot, therefore, be ruled out that the calixarene dimer also binds to this well accessible cleft; such a recognition mode would also explain the high observed stoichiometry factor of 30:1.
