title: Transition metals and carbohydrates: the methyl-4,6-O-benzylidene-2,3-diazo-2,3-dideoxy-alpha-D-mannopyranoside skeleton as building block for new chiral nitrogen chelates.
abstract: This paper describes a straightforward strategy for the synthesis of new nitrogen chelates by employing the chirality of readily available sugars. Thus, diimino and diamino ligands can be attained easily by using the methyl-4,6-O-benzylidene-2,3-diazo-2,3-dideoxy-alpha-D-mannopyranoside skeleton. The coordinating ability of one ligand has also been assessed by preparing a square-planar palladium complex [PdCl2(N,N-chelate)].
