Ligands derived from C-aryl substituted derivatives of cyclen: formation of kinetically unstable complexes with lanthanide(III) ions

The synthesis of C-aryl monosubstituted derivatives of 1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane (cyclen) by metal templated reductive amination of triethylenetetramine with aryl glyoxals has been developed and shown to be widely applicable. Octadentate ligands derived from these C-substituted macrocycles form...
