Multidentate macrocyclic ligands are comprised of molecules with an organic backbone interspersed with heteroatoms able to bind a variety of species. Macropolycyclic ligands are a 3-D extension of macrocyclic ligands, in which more than one macrocycle is incorporated into the same molecule. Multidentate macrocyclic and macropolycyclic ligands attract an increasing interest because they can function as receptors for several kinds of substrates, and because, after coordination, the physical and chemical properties of these substrates can be significantly modified.
