description

A new class of cross-bridged and side-bridged 1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclotridecanes (homocyclens) bearing an aminomethyl pendant arm on the carbon skeleton has been prepared. The regioselectivity of the quaternization of the bis-aminal intermediates is discussed on the basis of X-ray diffraction and NMR experiments. These new polyazamacrocycles are valuable precursors of bifunctional chelating agents for applications in nuclear medicine.
