description

A pillar[5]arene-containing cross-linked polymer was synthesized via Williamson reaction involving monohydroxy pillar[5]arene with chloromethylated polystyrene. Its adsorption behavior towards guests was investigated. It was found that the pillar[5]arene-containing polymer exhibited good adsorption capacities towards dihaloalkanes and dinitriles by host-guest complexation.
