Abstract: | Herein we report the synthesis and structural characterization of Mg(II), Ca(II), Sr(II) and Ba(II) complexes with bibracchial lariat ethers derived from 1,7-diaza-15-crown-5 and 1,7-diaza-12-crown-4 containing aniline or benzimidazole pendant arms. The solid state structures of most of them have been determined by using single crystal X-ray crystallography. A coordination number of seven was observed for the Mg(II) complexes in the solid state, while the Ca(II), Sr(II) and Ba(II) complexes are 8-, 9- and 11-coordinate, respectively. The Ca(II), Sr(II) and Ba(II) complexes show a syn conformation, with the two pendant arms of the ligand disposed on the same side of the macrocyclic mean plane. However, the Mg(II) complex with the largest ligand derived from 1,7-diaza-15-crown-5 containing benzimidazole pendants presents an anti conformation in the solid state. 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy reveal that this conformation is maintained in acetonitrile solution. |
