Abstract:The monitoring of shifting of the redox potential of macrocyclic complexes towards anodic or cathodic regions, which acts as a mediator in many electrocatalytic events, is made possible by inserting electron donating or withholding groups into their frameworks. Herein, using a template strategy, two [14]membered N 4 -macrocyclic complexes (denoted as complex A and complex B) with similar molecular cores but different phenyl moieties were prepared and characterized using multiple characterization techniques.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
