Abstract

Recent contributions to the chemistry of macrocyclic metal complexes and ligands are reviewed. The compounds reviewed have the following structural features: aza-macrocycles having 1,10-phenanthroline and 2,2′-bipyridine groups and pendants arms; highly aromatic aza-macrocycles with phthalocyanine and porphyrin units incorporating pendant arms; aliphatic aza-macrocycles with pendant arms and/or polynucleating aza-macrocycles. Several of their chemical properties are critically reviewed but the emphasis is on structural and synthetic details.
