Popis: 2-Carboxy-15-crown-5 has been prepared by potassium permanganate oxidation in modest yield. Its native conformation has been assessed by using infrared, NMR, and both MM2′ and MNDO calculations. Neutral cation complexes (of the form crown-COOH.MX) of this macrocycle with NaCl, NaBr, NaI, KCl, and CaCl2 have been prepared and studied. It is concluded that the carbonyl oxygen atom is a donor for the ring bound cation, an observation supported by the calculated lowest energy conformation of the non-complexed macrocycle.
