A pathway yielding both syn and anti -functionalized macrocycles derived from bis-tartaro-18-crown-6 (1) as well as a selective route to syn compounds have been developed and applied to the synthesis of new macrobicyclic polyether cryptands ( 2) and ( 3), which may also be obtained by direct bridging of the dianhydride ( 4).
