37. The heterodimer ld-7c was finally formed in two weeks after mixing.
38. It is not even necessary that all calixarenes are mixed in stoichiometric amounts, as only the respective pairs must be present in the same quantities.
39. Statistically seven tetraureas (la-d, 7a-c) allow 28 combinations, among which six are impossible due to an overlap of loops, and an additional six are also impossible due to their bulky residue(s), which cannot pass the loop(s).

41. The remaining two urea residues of the monoloop compound must bear bulky substituents. Otherwise it can also build a homodimer.
42. Even after one month the heterodimer cannot be detected.
43. α, protons, attached to the urea res- idues R (Scheme 1 ). Due to the strong hydrogen bonding formed with the O=O oxygen of the adjacent urea function these resonances are shifted to the low field of the spectrum and can be observed aside from other signals.
