Abstract

Abstract : The first TPA ligand equipped with a well-defined triazole-based hydrogen bonding cavity, inspired from the functionalized cavities of enzymes, was prepared. Abstract : A capped bioinspired ligand built from a tris(2-pyridyl-methyl)amine (TPA) unit and surmounted by a triazole-based intramolecular H-bonding secondary sphere was prepared. The resulting cage provides a well-defined cavity combining the hydrophobic nature with H-bonding properties. Its coordinating properties were explored using Zn(ii ) and Cu(ii ) metal ions.
