Abstract

A series of novel α,ω-bis(4-methylphenoxy) alkane functionalized cyclen ligands were synthesized by the nucleophilic substitution reaction of 1,4,7-tris(tert-butyloxycarbonyl)-1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane and α,ω-bis(4-bromomethylphenoxy) alkanes. The corresponding dimeric Zn(II)–cyclen complexes were obtained by reaction of these ligands with Zn(ClO4)2·6H2O. Ligands and complexes were characterized by FT-IR, 1H NMR, and elemental analysis.
