5. Synthesis of “three-legged” tri-dentate podand ligands incorporating long-chain aliphatic moieties, for water remediators, and for isolating metal ions in non-aqueous solution

Abstract
Two molecules, each including tris-2-amino-ethyleneamine (tren), have been produced using a Schiff’s base condensation and long-chain, aliphatic aldehydes. The syntheses are straightforward and can be run in air at ambient temperature. The ability of these molecules to complex with metal ions makes them good candidates for water remediation. The ability of these ligands to hold metal ions in 0.03M non-aqueous solutions was unexpected. Their syntheses and characterization are discussed.
