Abstract Three macrocyclic hexaamines 1, 2, and 4, and the acyclic tetraamine 5 and hexaamine 6 have been synthesized. The hexaamines 1, 2, and 4 are ditopic coreceptor molecules containing two triamine subunits which may bind anionic substrates when protonated. The stability constants of the complexes between the protonated forms of the macrocyclic polyamines and terminal dicarboxylates− O 2 C−(CH 2) m-CO 2− as well as ...
