Herein, we report the design, synthesis, and cyanide-scavenging behavior of circularly arranged sextuple molecule 4. The six syringaldehyde units carrying equal number of dimethoxyphenolic moieties projecting at the periphery make the molecule highly efficient for cleaning up cyanide from the aqueous solution. The stoichiometric data 1:6 showed that six units of cyanide interact with one unit of compound 4. The association constant of the compound for cyanide was 2.5 × 10<sup>4</sup> M<sup>-1</s ...[more]
