Complexation of Metals with Piperazine-Containing Azamacrocyclic Fluorophores
摘要:
Azamacrocyclic fluorophores containing piperazine units were synthesized using sequential rhodium-catalyzed regioselective hydroformylation-reductive amination. A piperazine unit is introduced into the macrocycles to act simultaneously as electron donor and binding site. The macrocycles chelate divalent cations, either Zn2+ or Co2+, which considerably enhanced fluorescence. Complexation with Zn2+ was additionally confirmed by NMR.
