The structure of Шаблон:Chem2.

In organic chemistry, an aza-crown ether is an aza analogue of a crown ether (cyclic polyether). That is, it has a nitrogen atom (amine linkage, Шаблон:Chem2 or Шаблон:Chem2) in place of each oxygen atom (ether linkage, Шаблон:Chem2) around the ring. While the parent crown ethers have the formulae Шаблон:Chem2, the parent aza-crown ethers have the formulae Шаблон:Chem2, where n = 3, 4, 5, 6. Well-studied aza crowns include triazacyclononane (n = 3), cyclen (n = 4), and hexaaza-18-crown-6 (n = 6).

Synthesis

The synthesis of aza crown ethers are subject to the challenges associated with the preparation of macrocycles. The 18-membered ring in (CH₂CH₂NH)₆ can be synthesized by combining two triamine components. By reaction with tosyl chloride, diethylene triamine is converted to a derivative with two secondary sulfonamides. This compound serves as a building block for macrocyclizations.

Variants

Many kinds of aza crown ethers exist.

Variable length linkers

Aza crowns often feature trimethylene ((CH₂)₃) as well as ethylene ((CH₂)₂) linkages. One example is cyclam (1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane).

Tertiary amines

In many aza-crown ethers some or all of the amines are tertiary. One example is the tri(tertiary amine) (CH₂CH₂NCH₃)₃, known as trimethyltriazacyclononane. Cryptands, three-dimensional aza crowns, feature tertiary amines.

Mixed ether-amine ligands

Another large class of macrocyclic ligands feature both ether and amines.. One example is the diaza-18-crown-6, [(CH₂CH₂O)₂(CH₂CH₂NH)]₂.

Lariate crowns

The presence of the amine allows the formation of Lariat crown ethers, which feature sidearms that augment complexation of cation.
