Received (in Cambridge, UK) 29th November 1999, Accepted 5th January 2000 ... Macrocycles containing a redox-active tetrathiafulvalene unit together with a phenanthroline ligand are able to recognise different metal ions (Cu+, Ag+ and Li+) when part of a precatenate complex. ... The redox responsive ...
