Functionalization of shape-persistent aromatic oligoamides still represents a difficult task nowadays. A crescent aromatic oligothioamide was synthesized by simple thionation of the corresponding oligoamide with the Lawesson's reagent. The results from UV-vis spectra of the molecule upon metal ion complexation demonstrated its higher selectivity in recognizing Cu²⁺ ions compared to the oligoamide precursor. The stoichiometry of the complex formed between the thioamide and Cu²⁺ was found to be 1:1 with a binding constant of (4.3±0.9)×10⁴ mol/L.
