Abstract
Polarographic studies on CuII-1,4,7,10-tetra-azacyclododecane (cyclen) complexation have shown that the thermodynamic and kinetic macrocyclic effect is evident despite the unfavourable steric constraints, and that the increased stability constant of CuII-cyclen compared to CuII-trien is accounted for solely by the entropy term.Keywords
