Abstract

Macrocyclic compounds are extensively studied from the viewpoints of molecular recognition, artificial catalyst, supramolecular structures, and so on. 1 In general, their preparation is not very efficient because competitive reactions may occur, resulting in several kinds of oligomeric compounds. In order to selectively obtain a desired macrocycle, researchers have developed several techniques such as template-assisted or preorganization-assisted syntheses ...
