Notes:
Three macrocyclic polyamines [24]ane-N6 1, [32]ane-N8 2 and [27]ane-N6O3 3 of ring size 24, 32 and 27, respectively, have been synthesized. They contain either trimethylenediamine of ethylenediamine units. The acyclic analog 4, as the reference compound, was also prepared. Compounds 1-3 are macrocyclic analogs of natural polyamines and are potential ligands for metal cations as well as, when protonated, for anions. The protonation constants of compounds 1-4 have been determined. They are high enough for compounds 1-4 to be fully protonated in a pH-range close to neutrality, as required for binding of anions of weak acids. The effect of structural features on the protonation constants are briefly discussed in relation to the design of macrocyclic polyamine ligands.
