In the investigation presented here the synthesis of new lariat ether derivative obtained from the modification of tetrapyrrolidinyl-PNP-crown ether macrocycle is described. The polyheterotopic molecular coreceptor consisted of the replacement of chlorine atoms with an optically active (S)-(1-benzylpyrrolidin-2-yl) methanamine. The structure was confirmed by using elemental analysis, mass spectrometry, and NMR spectroscopy. This work covers results concerning the complexing properties of the new ligand towards Ag + , Cu 2+, Co 2+, Ni 2+ , and Zn 2+ ions. The formation of non-covalent complexes of 1:1 stoichiometry with the Cu 2+, Co 2+, Ni 2+ , and Zn 2+ ions have been confirmed by mass spectrometry. Due to the previous work and application possibilities, a large emphasis was put on the investigation of the complexation ability of lariat ether with silver (I) cation to determine stability constants by direct potentiometric method. In this case, the formation of four different forms of complexes AgL, Ag 2 L, Ag 3 L, and Ag 4 L has been proved. The observed unusual binding through the nitrogen atoms from the exocyclic substituents may provide the structural unit to build a new coordination polymers.Molecules 2020, 25, 136 2 of 19 the preparation of the number of crown ethers, which can be used in various applications such as classical (polymer-supported catalysts PTC, reagents for separation and extraction, etc.) and highly sophisticated (the redox switches for membrane transport, synthetic cation-conducting channels, nucleotide-based molecular boxes and enzyme mimics) [7][8][9][10][11][12]. There are three known main types of lariat ethers: C-pivot lariat ethers [13][14][15], where the side arm is attached to the carbon atom, N-pivot lariat ethers [16][17][18], and finally P-pivot lariat ethers [19,20].The subjects of this research are the P-pivot lariat ether derivatives. The versatile precursors for this type of P-pivot lariat ethers have been obtained by the reaction of hexachlorocyclotriphosphazene with tetraethylene glycol in the presence of sodium hydride (Scheme 1).Molecules 2019, 24, x 2 of 19 various applications such as classical (polymer-supported catalysts PTC, reagents for separation and extraction, etc.) and highly sophisticated (the redox switches for membrane transport, synthetic cation-conducting channels, nucleotide-based molecular boxes and enzyme mimics) [7][8][9][10][11][12].
