Synthetic strategies for self-assembled schiff-base macrocycles

Schiff-base macrocycles have interesting properties that could be used in new materials such as chemical sensors, catalysts and discotic liquid crystals. Triangular [3+3] Schiff-base macrocycles, for example, have been extensively studied in the MacLachlan group. However, few examples of [4+4] Schif...
