Homoselenacalix[4]arenes were synthesized by a [2 + 2] reductive coupling protocol favouring the cyclotetramers. The inner and outer-rim decoration was varied and a bicyclic derivative was prepared by a similar one-pot procedure. Conformational analysis in solution and the solid state showed noticeable differences between the homoselenacalix[4]arenes and the analogous homothiacalix[4]arenes and provided insight into the metal binding potential of the Se-bridged macrocycles. The homoselenacalix[4]arenes were found to bind Ag(I). Complexation was visualized in the solid state and different packing networks were formed depending on the counter ions applied.
