CAS 41203-22-9: 1,4,8,11-Tetramethyl-1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane

Tetramethyl-1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane is a ligand that can form stable complexes with metals such as nickel and zinc. It has been shown to have anti-inflammatory properties in animal models of inflammatory bowel disease. Tetramethyl-1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane is synthesized by the reaction of malonic acid with nitrogen gas and metal ions. It has an electron configuration of 1s2 2s2 2p5 3s2 3p5 4s2 3d5 4p5 5s2 4d5 5p5 6s2 4f5 6p5 7s1 which allows it to bind to metal ions and form complexes. The molecule also has a redox potential which makes it capable of donating electrons in reactions that involve oxidation or reduction. Tetramethyl-1,4,8,11-tetraaz

1,4,8,11-Tetramethyl-1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane is used as a macrocyclic chelating agent in coordination chemistry. It is also used as a ligand which bind strongly to a wide range of metal ions and as crown ethers.
