Glycoligands and Co(ii) glycocomplexes. Investigation of the variation of the sugar-scaffold on the structure and chirality measured by circular dichroism

Abstract

Glycoligands using various monosaccharide platforms functionalised by three 2-picolyl groups and coordinated to Co(II) through the bidentate 2-picolyl ether moieties are interesting ligands as they efficiently induce chirality at the cobalt with a fine control of the structure through the central sugar scaffold.
