Book Description
This book contains an overview of complex formation by macrocyclic ligand systems. The study of macrocyclic chemistry represents a major area of activity which impinges on a range of other areas in both chemistry and biochemistry. The field has characteristically yielded many interesting and unusual compounds. The text discusses the structures and properties of macrocyclic compounds; the synthesis of macrocycles; polyether crown and related systems; metal-ion and molecular recognition (host-guest chemistry); as well as kinetic, thermodynamic and electrochemical aspects of a range of macrocyclic systems. A discussion of the different categories of naturally occurring macrocycles is also included. Specialist and non-specialist alike will find this a useful text. Apart from serving as a convenient reference for established workers in the field, it should also prove useful to new graduate students as well as to researchers from other areas who seek a general introduction to the subject. The topics discussed also provide a suitable basis for a senior undergraduate or graduate course in macrocyclic chemistry and inorganic complexes.

Book Description
Chemists have been aware of the existence of coordination compounds con taining organic macrocyclic ligands since the first part of this century ; however, only during the past few years have they expanded research into the chemistry of these compounds. The expansion was initiated in the early 1960s by the synthesis and characterization of compounds containing some new macrocyclic ligands. The synthesis of compounds which may serve as model systems for some natural products containing large rings as ligands provided the main goal for the early expansion of research effort; indeed, a recurrent theme behind much of the reported chemistry has been the analogy between synthetic macrocyclic compounds and many natural-product systems. More recently, the emphases of reported research have ranged over the whole spectrum of chemistry, and the number of publications that discuss macrocyclic chemistry has increased at a dramatic rate. The completed research has been reported in a variety of journals throughout the world but there has been no previous attempt to bring the major developments together under one cover. This book, therefore, attempts to satisfy the need for a single source in which there is both a collection and a correlation of information concerning the coordination chemistry of macrocyclic compounds. The chapters in this book discuss various aspects of macrocyclic chemistry, and while these chapters as a whole constitute an in-depth survey of the state-of the-art of the field, each chapter is written as a complete unit.

Book Description
Macrocyclic ligands that can incorporate two or more metal ions giving homo- or hetero-dinuclear complexes are of considerable interest. Some of these hetero-dinuclear complexes are interesting as they mimic the active sites of metalloenzymes, such as cytochrome-c oxidase and bovine erythrocyte superoxide dismutase. Such systems are very helpful in investigating mutual influences of the two metal centers on electronic, magnetic, and electrochemical properties. Therefore, such types of system are very helpful in biological diagnostic applications. Research in inorganic chemistry has expanded in recent years by exploiting a variety of chelating ligands to modify and control the characteristics of metal ions in biological systems. Macrocyclic ligands offer the benefit of high stability complex formation and, through functionalization, the opportunity to modify the coordination environment. The pharmaceutical and bio-medical industry has yet to appreciate the impact coordination chemistry can have on the design of novel medicines. This may change the future as skilled multi-disciplinary experts may develop their investigation using a strategic approach to complex design.

Book Description
This book presents the important facts about the synthesis and biological studies of macrocyclic transition metal complexes. A detailed synthetic discussion of the reaction steps in each mechanism and their relationship with transition metal complexes has been considered. Macrocyclic ligands and their transition metal complexes depends upon the nature of reactants and the corresponding metal ion. The macrocyclic ligand are a growing class of compounds with varying chemistry a wide range of different molecular topologies and set of donor atoms. Aza type ligands appear as very promising to be used as antifertile, antibacterial, antifungal and other biological properties. Macrocyclic metal complexes play a central role in the construction of molecular materials, which display magnetic properties and find applications in material and supramolecular chemistry and biochemistry. It is believed that the present book will provide a succinct and clear introduction to synthesis, characterization and biological studies macrocyclic ligands with transition metal complexes that meets the needs of researchers at a variety of levels in several disciplines.
