Abstract
A variety of armed cyclens were prepared in which ester, amide, nitrile, and pyridine moieties were attached as cation-ligating side arms to a 12-membered ring. Ester-, amide-, and pyridine-armed cyclens nicely accommodated a Na+ ion in a three-dimensional fashion and clearly discriminated the cation from Li+ and K+ ions. They extracted Na+ ion more efficiently and selectively than common Na+ ion-selective ligands. X-ray diffraction, FAB-MS, 23Na NMR binding studies, and computer modeling experiments demonstrated that the cyclens having ester-, amide-, and pyridine-functionalized side arms formed highly selective encapsulated Na+ complexes via a cooperative action of parent cyclen and side arms.Keywords
