Abstract

The synthesis of a variety of polyazamacrocyclic compounds comprising structural units of tris(3-aminopropyl)amine (TRPN) and oxadiamines, decorated with one or two fluorophore groups (dansyl or quinoline) at different nitrogen atoms, was carried out using Pd(0)-catalyzed amination. The dependence of the yields of the macrocycles on the synthetic path was observed. The spectrophotometric and fluorescent properties of the target compounds were studied, and their coordination with metal cations using UV–vis, fluorescence spectra as well as NMR titration was investigated. The stoichiometry and binding constants of several complexes with Cu(II), Zn(II), Cd(II), Pb(II) and Hg(II) were established. Three of the six studied macrocycles can be judged as prospective detectors of Zn(II) cations due to the substantial enhancement of fluorescence.
