INOR 113 |
| Tetra-amide-based macrocycles have recently been found to be capable of binding transition metal cations upon removal of the amide protons. In an effort to establish the capabilities of these new ligand systems, we have synthesized a variety of transition metals complexes with both chelating and macrocyclic amides. In simple monocyclic ligands structural results indicate that the conformation of the ligand is dependent on the oxidation state of the metal ion. Both monotopic and ditopic complexes can be formed. The physical and chemical properties including X-ray crystallographic findings of these complexes for both chelating and macrocyclic complexes will be described and compared. |
