“…Tda is a versatile ligand that has been widely explored employing its multidendate and chelating coordination abilities with many metals. It forms complexes with different metal ions, such as lanthanides (Zhang et al, 2002), cobalt (Grairrane, Pastor, Alvrez, Mealli et al, 2005), magnesium , zinc (Grairrane et al, 2006;Wyrzykowski et al, 2013), copper (Alarcon-Payer et al, 2005;Baggio et al, 1999), vanadium (Alvarez et al, 2010), lead (Gabriel et al, 2013;Wu et al, 2013), tin (Sandhu & Sharma, 1996), calcium and strontium (Grairrane et al, 2007), uranium(VI) (Kirishima & Sato, 2014;Di Bernardo et al, 2006), ruthenium (Zangl et al, 2009) and manganese (Grairrane et al, 2003(Grairrane et al, , 2011. Multidentate macrocyclic ligands have been synthesized using Tda and triazine (Aghatabay et al, 2009;Steenland et al, 1999).…”
