Herein, the presented results show that previously studied DNA/RNA-interacting bis-imidazole-calix[4]arene systems can, in aqueous solutions, efficiently bind a series of biorelevant transition metal cations by coordination with the two imidazole arms at the small rim of their macrocyclic basket. The SCXRD and NMR results structurally characterised the complexes formed by referent bis-imidazole-calix[4]arene with Cu2+ and Zn2+. In solid-state (crystal), the bis-anilino derivative/Cu2+ complex, only upon exposure to the air, undergoes intramolecular dehydrogenative coupling of two neighbouring aniline units, yielding an azo bridge at the large rim of the calix[4]arene basket. In the biorelevant aqueous solution, the comparison of fluorometric titrations of referent calix[4]arene, with its analogues having one or two pyrene units grafted at the opposite (large) rim, revealed moderate-to-strong affinity towards transition metal cations, and, more importantly, a strong impact of pyrene on the binding affinity towards some cations. The pyrene arm(s) significantly diminished the affinity of the calix[4]arene-imidazole ligand towards Cu+ and strongly increased the affinity towards divalent Co2+ and Cd2+ cations. Moreover, the fluorometric response of some studied derivatives was strappingly sensitive to cation type. Since the counter-anion plays only a marginal role, such a change in selectivity is attributed to the intramolecular interaction of pyrene(s) with the calix[4]arene-imidazole system, sterically controlling the metal cation binding site.
