Hexaaza‐dithia Macrocycles Containing Pendant Methoxyethyl Groups: Synthesis and Characterization of Mono and Dinuclear Nickel Complexes

Abstract

Abstract. The deprotection of two bicyclic hexaaza-dithioether macrocycles 1 and 2 containing four (or six) N-bound 2-methoxyethyl substituents was achieved in good yields utilizing Li or Na/naphthalene in THF as the reagent.
