Abstract

The unprecedented ring size in tetramer 1 arises from the alternation of the (Formula Presented.) coordinating units in the sixteen‐membered macrocycle. This alternation spaces out the ring components of the OxO ligands, and the flat aromatic rings of the ligands align themselves in near‐parallel pairs (shown on the right). Tetramer 1 is prepared from Me3A1 and OxOH in toluene. (Figure Presented.) (Formula Presented.)
