Photo-regulated cyclization reactions of tetraazamacrocycles with azobenzene derivatives
†
Abstract
The cyclization reaction between 1 and 2 was carried out in high dilution and was photochemically regulated to give 1∶1 (29–33 membered rings, 52–55%) and 2∶2 (58–66 membered rings, 20–49%) adducts as photo-controllable compounds.
