The title copper(II) complex of a pyridine-containing macrocycle (PyMAC), [Cu(C16H28N4)](ClO4)2, has been prepared. The crystal structure reveals the Cu(II) atom to be octahedrally coordinated by a tetradentate aminopyridine macrocyclic ligand surrounding the metal cation in a square-planar geometry. Two weakly bound perchlorate counter-ions occupy the axial sites above and below the macrocycli...

A new complex of Chromium(III) and the cross-bridged macrocyclic ligand 4,11-dimethyl-1,4,8,11tetraazabicyclo[6.6.2] hexadecane has been synthesized. Complexation of Tungsten, Vanadium, and Molybdenum was unsuccessful. The Cr(III)(L) complex was characterized using UV-Visible spectroscopy λmax = 583nm , IR Spectroscopy, X-Ray Crystallography, and magnetic susceptibility ueff = 3.95. These tests...

A novel octadentate 3-hydroxypyridin-2-one (2,3-HOPO) based di-macrocyclic ligand was evaluated for chelation of (89)Zr; subsequently, it was used as a bi-functional chelator for preparation of (89)Zr-labeled antibodies. Quantitative chelation of (89)Zr(4+) with the octadentate ligand forming (89)ZrL complex was achieved under mild conditions within 15 minutes. The (89)Zr-complex was stable in ...

In the title complex, [Ag(2)(C(12)H(8)N(2)O(4))(C(10)H(8)N(2))(2)]·2H(2)O, the Ag(I) ion is three-coordinated by two N atoms from a chelating 2,2'-bipyridine ligand and one N atom from an imide ligand in a Y-shaped fashion. The imide ligand and the complex lie on a twofold rotation axis. The ligand bridges two Ag(I) ions, forming a dinuclear complex. In the crystal, O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds link th...

A novel octadentate 3-hydroxypyridin-2-one (2,3-HOPO) based di-macrocyclic ligand was evaluated for chelation of Zr; subsequently, it was used as a bi-functional chelator for preparation of Zr-labeled antibodies. Quantitative chelation of Zr with the octadentate ligand forming ZrL complex was achieved under mild conditions within 15 minutes. The Zr-complex was stable in vitro in presence of DTP...

In the title thio-cyanate-coordinated aza-macrocyclic copper(II) complex, [Cu(NCS)(2)(C(24)H(38)N(6))], the Cu(II) atom is coordinated by the four secondary N atoms of the aza-macrocyclic ligand and by the two N atoms of the thio-cyanate ions in a tetra-gonally distorted octa-hedral geometry. The average equatorial Cu-N bond length is shorter than the average axial Cu-N bond length [2.010 (2) a...

The structure of the title compound, [Ni(C2H3N4)2(C16H38N6)], has been characterized from synchrotron radiation. The asymmetric unit consists of one half of the Ni(II) complex mol-ecule, which is related to the other half-mol-ecule by an inversion center. The Ni(II) ion is coordinated by four secondary N atoms of the macrocyclic ligand in a square-planar fashion in the equatorial plane and by t...

The ring size effect of macrocyclic TMC ligands in nonheme iron(IV)-oxo complexes has been examined in hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) and oxygen atom transfer (OAT) reactions; an iron(IV)-oxo complex bearing a smaller TMC ligand is more reactive in both HAT and OAT reactions, resulting from its high Fe(IV/III) redox potential.

The macrocyclic 5,5,7,12,12,14-hexamethyl-1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradeca-7,14-dienium bromide salt (LBr) was synthesisedfor use in complexationreactions with various metal salts of copper, nickel, and zinc. Twelve complexes were synthesised; five of them were successfully obtained in a crystal form that was suitable for X-ray crystallographic analysis. All the complexes were analysedby microel...

The title complex, [NiCl(2)(C(15)H(24)N(6))(C(3)H(7)NO)], is isomorphous with the Co(II) analogue. Three N-atom donors from the facially coordinating triaza macrocyclic ligand, one O-atom donor from dimethyl-formamide and two Cl(-) anions surround the Ni(II) ion in a distorted octa-hedral coordination geometry. Inter-molecular C-H⋯Cl and C-H⋯N hydrogen-bonding inter-actions link the complex mol...
