A new bambusuril derivative, (H)BU[6], lacking substituents on the ureidic nitrogen atoms, has been isolated and characterized. This macrocycle was prepared by the deprotection of bambusuril (PMB)BU[6]. (H)BU[6] is attractive for use as a starting compound for the preparation of other bambusuril derivatives, which was demonstrated via propargylation and the copper-catalyzed click reaction performed on the macrocycle.
