First hexanuclear zirconium macrocycle sustained in a chair-like conformation by glycolic acids.
A discrete, hexanuclear zirconium metallocycle has been synthesized, isolated, and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. It is sustained in a chair-like conformation by glycolic acids. Formation and growth of the complex has been observed using in situ time-resolved dynamic light scattering measurements.
