Anion and cation binding by a pendant arm cyclam and its macrobicyclic derivatives

Channa, A.; Steed, J.W.

Abstract

A series of transition-metal complexes of N, N', N'', N'''-tetra(3-hydroxypropyl)cyclam (L-1) are reported. The X-ray structures of the compounds reveal pendant arm coordination of one of the alcohol groups to give square-pyramidal metal centres with simultaneous hydrogen bonding to the counter anions. Ligand L1 has been elaborated to form a series of macrotricyclic derivatives that form 1 : 1 complexes with Cu(II) and Ni(II). The X-ray structure of the tetrahydrate and protonated forms of L1 are also reported.
