Abstract

Macropolycyclic ligands may form polynuclear cryptate complexes by inclusion of two or more metal cations into the intramolecular cavities; distance and arrangement of the metal cations may be regulated via ligand structure. Such systems present much interest as models of polynuclear biological complexes or as polynuclear catalysts, especially if cascade may be formed by inclusion of substrate molecules between the cations. We ...
