The influence of cyclodextrins (CDs) on the formation of azocrown ethers comprising pyrrole, imidazole and substituted imidazole has been studied. Pyrrole, imidazole, 2-methyl-, 4-methyl- and 4-phenylimidazole were coupled with bis-diazonium salts derived from bis-1,5-(2-aminophenoxy)-3-oxapentane or bis-1,8-(2-aminophenoxy)-3,6-dioxaoctane to form macrocyclic compounds with two azo units. The syntheses were performed under standard conditions in the presence of α-, β- or γ-CDs and the yield of the reaction products was compared with the results of plain experiments, i.e. without CDs. The results are discussed in terms of co-conformation of azole molecules embedded in CD cavity.
