Design and Synthesis of Binucleating Macrocyclic Clefts Derived from Schiff‐Base Calixpyrroles

Abstract: The syntheses, characterisation and complexation reactions of a series of binucleating Schiff-base calixpyrrole macrocycles are described. The acid-templated [2+2] condensations between meso-disubstituted diformyldipyrromethanes and o-phenylenediamines generate the Schiff-base pyrrolic macrocycles H(4)L(1) to H(4)L(6) upon basic workup. The single-crystal X-ray structures of both H(4)L(3).2 EtOH and H(4)L(6).H2O confirm that [2+2] cyclisation has occurred, with either EtOH or H2O hydrogen-bonded within the mac… Show more

“…Both the cobalt cations are square pyramidal, with Co1 and Co2 displaced out of the N 4 -basal planes by 0.17 and 0.18 , respectively, and the apical sites are occupied by pyridine nitrogen atoms that are exo and endo to the cleft. The canted geometry of the endo-pyridine (Co2-N10-C46 161.708) is similar to that seen by us in [Cu 2 (endo-py)(L)], [14] and reflects the inability of the binuclear cleft to expand. In contrast, pacman diporphyrin and bis(corrole) complexes have the capacity to undergo considerable vertical expansion.…”

“…Similar interactions between the pyrrole NH donors and imine N acceptors in H 4 L and solvent of crystallisation were seen previously, 22,23 and an analogous weak interaction between the fluorenyl substituent (C108) and the metal-bound hydroxide was seen in a related binuclear cobalt complex of the symmetric macrocycle (C fluorenyl -O 3.386 Å) and could play a role in any future catalytic chemistry. 17 The second pyrrolic nitrogen (N103) is not involved in any further bonding.…”

“…There have since been only a limited number of applications of the Eatons' method in EPR spectroscopy of transition metal compounds. These include studies both of pure powders [13][14][15][16][17][18] and of frozen solutions [19][20][21][22][23][24]. The most studied compounds have been copper(II) systems, in which the distances between copper centers were known from X-ray analyses, but applications to other metals such as W(V) are found [19].…”
