Abstract
The macrocyclic ligands 1-(2-aminoethyl)-(L1) and 1-(3-aminopropyl)-1,5,9-triazacyclododecane (L2) have been synthesised from 2,4-dioxo-1,5,9-triazacyclododecane, and the complexes [ZnL1(OClO3)]ClO4(trigonal bipyramidal) and [NiL2(NCS)2](octahedral) characterised by X-ray crystallography; L1 and L2 form more stable complexes than do analogues bearing tertiary amino groups on the pendant arms, but allow higher co-ordination numbers.
