Metal complexes of macrocyclic ligands containing pyridine

Judite Costa, +1 more
- 01 Nov 1993 - 
TL;DR: Some macrocyclic compounds containing pyridinc have been synthetized: 3,6,9,15-tetraazabicyclo[9.3.1]hexadeca-1(16),12,14-triene(2), 3,7,11,17-TTEBICCLO[11.3 as mentioned in this paper, 13,15 trienc (4).
Journal ArticleDOI

Dissociation constants of Br∅nsted acids in D2O and H2O: studies on polyaza and polyoxa-polyaza macrocycles and a general correlation

TL;DR: In this article, a linear correlation between the dissociation constants of polyaza and polyoxa-polyaza macrocyclic compounds was established between the acid forms obtained in deuterium oxide (p K D ) and in water ( p K H ).
Journal ArticleDOI

Macrocyclic copper(II) complexes: Superoxide scavenging activity, structural studies and cytotoxicity evaluation

TL;DR: Five macrocyclic copper(II) complexes are synthesized and evaluated their ability to scavenge the superoxide anions generated by the xanthine-xanthine oxidase system, finding some of the presented complexes appear to be promising superoxide scavenger agents, and should be considered for further biological assays.
Journal ArticleDOI

13- and 14-membered macrocyclic ligands containing methylcarboxylate or methylphosphonate pendant arms: Chemical and biological evaluation of their 153Sm and 166Ho complexes as potential agents for therapy or bone pain palliation

TL;DR: Biodistribution studies in mice demonstrated that (153)Sm/(166)Ho-trita complexes have a fast tissue clearance with more than 95% of the injected activity excreted after 2 h, value that is comparable to the corresponding dota complexes, in contrast, the ( 153)Sm-teta complex has a significantly lower total excretion.
Journal ArticleDOI

Lanthanide complexes of macrocyclic derivatives useful for medical applications

TL;DR: In this paper, the protonation constants of two series of tetraazamacrocyclic ligands with acetate and methylphosphonate pendant arms, as well as their stability constants with Cu 2+, La 3+, Sm 3+ and Ho 3+ were determined.
