Functionalization and Coordination Effects on the Structural Chemistry of Pendant Arm Derivatives of 1,4,7-trithia-10-aza-cyclododecane ([12]aneNS3)

The effect of different pendant arms on the structural chemistry of the 1,4,7-trithia-10-aza-cyclododecane ([12]aneNS3) macrocycle is discussed in relation to the coordination chemistry of all known functionalized derivatives of [12]aneNS3, which have been structurally characterized.
