The condensation of distal-dibromoresorcinarene 1 with formaldehyde and thiols in acetic acid yields resorcinarenes 2, having thiomethyl and bromo substituents at the extraannular position in alternating sequence. This thiomethylation with the appropriate α,ω-dithiols leads to the intramolecularly bridged derivatives 4, the thiacrown-resorcinarenes.
