Am. Costero et al., BIS-CYCLIC CROWN-ETHERS DERIVED FROM BIPHENYL - INFLUENCE OF CONFORMATION IN COMPLEXATION OF HG(SCN)(2), Tetrahedron, 52(2), 1996, pp. 669-676
Complexation studies carried out using bis-crown ethers derived from b
iphenyl have demostrated that the second crown units has a strong infl
uence on the association constant in the first one. X-ray analysis sho
ws that the situation is different in the monocrown-ether complex 5 th
an in the related bis-cyclic compound 6.
