A direct method for the N-tetraalkylation of azamacrocycles

Abstract: An efficient protocol for the direct synthesis of N-tetraalkylated derivatives of the azamacrocycles cyclam and cyclen has been developed, using a partially miscible aqueous–organic solvent system with propargyl bromide, benzyl bromide, and related halides. The method works most effectively when the reaction mixture is shaken, not stirred. A crystal structure of the N-tetrapropargyl cyclam derivative 1,4,8,11-tetra(prop-2-yn-1-yl)-1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane diperchlorate is reported.

“…75 The ligand, 12-TBC (= 1,4,7,10tetrabenzyl-1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane), was synthesized by a previously reported method. 76 Co II (12-TBC)(OTf) 2 (1) was synthesized in a drybox: Equimolar amounts of 12-TBC (0.28 mmol, 150 and Co II (CF 3 SO 3 ) 2 •2CH 3 CN (0.28 mmol, 120 mg) were dissolved in CH 3 CN and stirred at ambient temperature for 12 h in a drybox, resulting in a color change of the reaction solution to red. The resulting solution was filtered and a large volume of ether was added to the solution, giving the red precipitate of the desired product.…”
