ABSTRACT
New cryptands including bis-azacrown and saccharidic moieties in their structure were prepared in several steps by applying Staudinger-aza-Wittig reaction (SAW). Syntheses have been started from cheap, easily available commercial compounds such as D-glucose, D-cellobiose and D-lactose subsequently transformed into their derivatives in fairly good yields (60-65%) and suitable to give desired final cryptands by direct SAW coupling reactions.

Two new C2 symmetric bis-cellobiose and bis-glucose azacrown derivatives were prepared according to the one-step procedure using azacrown ethers and azidosaccharides. Their complexes with aspirin and paracetamol were studied with the use of proton NMR spectroscopy. It was found that these pseudocryptands bind aspirin and paracetamol but each one in a different manner.
