AI Article Synopsis

  • The reaction between 4,6-dihydrazinopyrimidines and 2,6-dicarbonylpyridines leads to the formation of a new class of [3 + 3] macrocycles with 15 nitrogen donor atoms.
  • Nine of these nitrogen atoms are positioned around the outer edge of the macrocycle.
  • These macrocycles can bind metal ions, resulting in the creation of trinuclear complexes while allowing the nine outer nitrogen atoms to shift inward, showcasing a unique inversion motion of the macrocycle.

Article Abstract

Reaction of 4,6-dihydrazinopyrimidines with 2,6-dicarbonylpyridines produces, under metal-free or template conditions, a new class of [3 + 3] macrocycles with 15 Nsp(2) donor atoms. Nine Nsp(2) atoms are on the external circumference of the macrocycle. The macrocycle can bind metal ions and produce trinuclear complexes along with the motion of the nine outer Nsp(2) atoms to inner positions (a motion of inversion of the macrocycle).
