Synthesis and characterisation of macromolecules containing multiple tetrazole functionalities
摘要:
The synthesis of tetra-tetrazole macromolecules, containing various aromatic cores including benzene, pyridine and pyrazine directly attached to the tetrazole moieties, is described. This variation allowed for the generation of ligands with greater potential for metal ion complexation. Metal ion complexation reactions of the tetra-tetrazole macromolecules with the chelating pyridyl-tetrazole arms result in the formation of metal complexes where the metal ion was bound at the pendant arms rather than at the central core.
