Linear recognition of dicarboxylates by ditopic macrocyclic complexes

Abstract

A new macrocyclic ligand, whose dicopper complex acts as a receptor for dianions in water at physiological pH, was prepared, and comparison with a structurally isomeric but larger complex demonstrates that the selectivity pattern for dicarboxylate binding obeys the principles of preorganization and linear recognition.
