H. Graubaum et al., HETEROPHANES WITH 1,3,5-TRIAZINES AS SUBU NITS AND THIOL DISULFIDE REDOX SWITCH/, Journal fur praktische Chemie, Chemiker-Zeitung, 339(1), 1997, pp. 55-58
The synthesis and characterization of 5 new coronands 2a-e, containing
two 1,3,5-triazine-thiols as subunits and redox-switch are described.
Cryptands 3a-e with disulfide bridges were obtained by oxidation. Red
uction of cryptands 3a-e yields back the coronands 2a-e. The different
complexation properties of the macrocycles 2a-d and 3a-d toward TI(I)
, Ag(I) and Hg(II) are also reported.
