| Summary: | Aminophenol compounds are usually employed in coordination chemistry due to their versatility to form metal complexes. Heptadentate <i>N</i><sub>5</sub><i>O</i><sub>2</sub> aminophenol ligands can lead to the formation of lanthanoid complexes with pentagonal bypiramidal (pbp) geometry, which are very interesting in the field of molecular magnetism. In this communication, we report an optimised method for obtaining two similar <i>N</i><sub>5</sub><i>O</i><sub>2</sub> aminophenols named 2-((((6-(((5-hydroxy-2-R-benzyl)(pyridin-2-ylmethyl)amino)methyl)pyridin-2-yl)methyl)(pyridin-2-ylmethyl)amino)methyl)-4-R-phenol (R = methyl or methoxy), which significantly improves the few examples of synthesis of this type of compound reported in the literature. |
