Abstract
trans- and cis-1,3,5,7-tetraaradecalin (TAD) (2 and 3) were isolated and structurally characterized (VT-NMR). One of the cis-TAD derivatives intended to act as 'cores' of new host systems, 2,6-dihydroxymethyl)-cis-TAD (5), gave heavy metal ion (Cd(II), Pb(II), etc.) complexes with remarkably high binding constants, as measured by polarography. X-ray analyses of the Cd(II) (7a) and Pb(II) (7b) complexes revealed a new, unique binding mode.
