Design and Synthesis of Disulfide-based Macrocycles and their Heavy Metal Ion Complexation and Self-assembly Studies

   

Ishanki Bhardwaj*

 

ABSTRACT

 

A set of disulfide-based macrocycles C4-C8 with different spacer groups were synthesized. They possess complexing abilities toward heavy metal ions such as Hg2+ and Cd2+. C4 showed specific binding toward Hg2+, while C6 exhibited binding toward Cd2+. Self-assembly analysis depicted their varied morphologies dependent on spacer moiety and internal molecular arrangement.
