I. Gardinier et al., TRIVALENT PROTECTING GROUPS FOR THE SYNTHESIS OF SYMMETRICAL AND UNSYMMETRICAL BIS-TETRAAZAMACROCYCLES, Tetrahedron letters, 37(43), 1996, pp. 7711-7714
Facile syntheses of bis-tetraazamacrocycles are reported starting from
tripotection of tetraazamacrocycles. The triprotected macrocycle was
mono N-alkylated and then this compound reacted with another macrocycl
e to give symmetrical or unsymmetrical bis-tetraazamacrocycles. Copyri
