Redox properties of alkylated and crown ether functionalised azamacrocyclic nickel(II) complexes
The spectrophotometric and electrochemical behaviour of nine C-alkylated-1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradeca-4,11-dienenickel(II) complexes were investigated depending on the donor strength of the solvent. One of these complexes was functionalised with one or two benzo-15-crown-5 ethers. The electrochemical behaviour of the functionalised complexes was studied.
