Abstract A novel bis-naphthalimidocalix[4]arene-Cu(II) supramolecular complex has been observed to provide an efficient recognition system for CN− ions in aqueous medium. The binding stoichiometry of bis-naphthalimidocalix[4]arene and copper ion has been found to be 1:1 while that for bis-naphthalimidocalix[4]arene-Cu(II) and cyanide ion it has been determined to be 1:2.
