Abstract
A new strategy to the preparation of selectively functionalized polyaz amacrocycles is presented. Polyaza[n]paracyclophanes receptors are abl e to efficiently direct their own selective monofunctionalization upon interaction with simple guests such as metal cations. This enables th e preparation of novel receptors functionalized at one of the benzylic nitrogen atoms with a variety of groups.
