This paper reviews the research activities of calixarenes in the area of inverse phase transfer catalysts,artificial enzyme and the others in recent years.

The catalytic performance of a reaction-controlled phase-transfer catalyst,quaternary ammonium heteropolyphosphatotungstate,for propylene epoxidation was investigated using aqueous hydrogen peroxide as oxidant and HPO~(2-)_4 or H_2PO~-_4 as additive.

Heteropoly blue Q 7PMo 12O 42 (Q=C 5H 5NC 16H 33) has been designed and synthesized as reaction-controlled phase-transfer catalyst for catalytic epoxidation of cyclohexene and catalytic oxidation of benzalcohol with H 2O 2 as the oxidant.

In the presence of forward phase transfer catalyst (FPTC) (CTMAB) and RPTC binary catalyst system, aliphatic - a - amino acids were synthesized in a one - pot manner from aliphatic aldehydes, potassium hydroxide, ammonia and chloroform.
