The complexation reactions between the macrocyclic ionophore, p-isopropylcalix[6] arene and Cs+ cation were studied in dimethylsulfoxide-acetonitrile (DMSO-AN) binary non-aqueous solvents at different temperatures using a conductometry method. The conductance data show that the stoichiometry of the (p-isopropylcalix[6]-arene center dot Cs)(+) complex in all binary mixed solvents is 1:1. The stability of the complexes is affected by the composition of the binary solvent media and a non-linear behavior was observed for changes of log K-f of the complex versus the composition of the binary mixed solvents. The thermodynamic parameters (Delta H degrees(c) and Delta S degrees(c)) for formation of (p-isopropyl-calix[6] arene center dot Cs)(+) complex were obtained from temperature dependence of the stability constant and the obtained results show that the (p-isopropylcalix[6]arene center dot Cs)(+) complex is enthalpy destabilized, but entropy stabilized, and the values of the mentioned parameters are affected strongly by the nature and composition of the binary mixed solvents.
