The central pyridine ring of the 2,2':6',2''-terpyridine fragment of the title compound, C(29)H(29)N(3)O(6), forms dihedral angles of 5.2 (5), 10.1 (5) and 86.0 (6)°, respectively, with the two outer pyridine rings and the benzene ring of the benzo-15-crown-5 fragment.

Macrocyclic compounds (crown ethers), specifically 18-crown-6 (18-C-6), benzo-15-crown-5 (B-15-C-5), di-benzo-18-crown-6 (DB-18-C-6) and di-cyclohexano-18-crown-6 (DC-18C-6), are used as extractants as well as synergists with amine-group extractants. Platinum and rhodium belong to platinum-group metals (PGMs) and have very similar ionic radii and similar properties. The separation of PGMs is mo...

Compounds consisting of [M(1,2-disila-[3n]crown-n)] (M = Mg, Ca, Sr, Ba; n = 5, 6) and [Ba(1,2-disilabenzo[18]crown-6)] cations and different anions were obtained by equimolar reaction of the hybrid disila-crown ethers 1,2-disila[15]crown-5 (1), 1,2-disila[18]crown-6 (2) and 1,2-disila-benzo[18]crown-6 (7) with alkaline earth metal salts. Even with strongly coordinating anions such as Br or I s...
