It is in essence a specific case of the [[chelation]] effect: ''complexes of [[bidentate]] and polydentate [[ligand]]s are more stable than those with unidentate ligands of similar strength (or similar donor atoms)''. A macrocycle has donor atoms arranged in more fixed positions and thus there is less of an [[Entropy|entropic]] effect in the [[binding energy]] of macrocycles than monodentate or bidentate ligands with an equal number of donor atoms. Thus the macrocycle effect states that ''complexes of macrocyclic ligands are more stable than those with linear polydentate ligands of similar strength (or similar donor atoms)''.

A '''macrocycle''' is, as defined by [[IUPAC]], ''"a cyclic macromolecule or a macromolecular cyclic portion of a molecule."''{{ref|iupac-01}} In the chemical literature, organic chemists may consider any molecule containing a ring of seven, fifteen, or any arbitrarily large number of atoms to be macrocyclic. <br />
<br />
== Macrocycle Effect ==<br />
[[Image:Cyclen Zinc InorgChem 1997 4579.jpg|thumbnail|175px|Crystal structure of a Zn(II) ion coordinated to [[cyclen]] and [[ethanol]] reported in Inorg. Chem., 1997, 4579-4584.]]<br />
Coordination chemists study macrocycle with three or more potential donor atoms in rings of greater than nine atoms as these compounds often have strong and specific binding with metals.{{ref|melson-01}} This property of coordinating macrocyclic molecules is the macrocycle effect. It is in essence a specific case of the [[chelation]] effect: ''complexes of [[bidentate]] and polydentate [[ligand]]s are more stable than those with unidentate ligands of similar strength (or similar donor atoms)''. A macrocycle has donor atoms arranged in more fixed positions and thus there is less of an [[Entropy|entropic]] effect in the [[binding energy]] of macrocycles than monodentate or bidentate ligands with an equal number of donor atoms. Thus the macrocycle effect states that ''complexes of macrocyclic ligands are more stable than those with linear polydentate ligands of similar strength (or similar donor atoms)''. The same can be said for multicyclic macrocycles, or cryptates, being stronger complexing agents (a cryptate effect).<br />
<br />
== Synthesis ==<br />
Macrocycles are generally synthesized from smaller, usually linear, molecules. To create a ring, either an intermolecular reaction, where two or more molecules come together in a reaction to form a ring, or an [[intramolecular]] reaction, where one molecule reacts with itself to form a ring, must occur. Because the formation of macrocycles uses the same chemistry that [[polymerization]] does, steps need to be taken to prevent polymerization from occurring. <br />
Traditionally, this involved '''high dilution''' chemistry where large amounts of solvent and low concentrations were used to prevent molecules from reacting with other molecules. Also, the reagents frequently needed to be added slowly. At low concentration, the molecule is more likely to react with itself than with another molecule. This is generally inefficient, using large quantities of solvents and giving low yields. <br />
<br />
To achieve high yields of macrocycles at high concentrations, a way to orient the reactive sites such that they readily undergo cyclization was needed. [[Transition metal]]s, with their ability to gather & dispose of ligands in a given predictable geometry, can induce a “template effect.” By binding to the linear molecule, to influence its geometry, a metal "template" can accelerate either the intramolecular or the intermolecular reaction. Thus the judicious choice of a metal ion and the relative locations of donor atoms would allow a metal to control the cyclization process.<br />
<br />
The '''template effect''' can be divided into two slightly more specific effects:<br />
The '''kinetic template effect''' describes the directive influence of the metal ion controls the steric course of a sequence of stepwise reactions. In cases where the '''thermodynamic template effect''' operates, the metal ion perturbs an existing equilibrium in an organic system and the required product is produced often in high yield as a metal complex. In most cases, the kinetic template effect is operative, however an assignment cannot be made in all cases. {{ref|melson-01}}<br />

* Removal of [[heavy metals]] from aqueous solution for water purification.<br />
*:* [[Chelation therapy]] whereby the use of chelating agents such as [[EDTA]] to remove heavy metals from the body.<br />
* Molecular switches and linear motors for constructing artificial [[nanotechnology|nanoscale]] machinery (rotaxanes)<br />
* Chemical Sensors<br />
* Mimicry of cellular receptors<br />
* Molecular recognition<br />
*:* Recognition of [[peptides]]{{ref|jung-01}} <br />
*:* Small molecules<br />
* Organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs)<br />
<br />
== Historical Uses ==<br />
Macrocycles have been in use for several decades as synthetic dyes. [[Phthalocyanine]] is a [[porphyrin]] analogue, which is arguably the most useful, in uses as dyes and pigments since their discovery in 1928, due to their dark blue colour. There are however many other uses for them. Their name comes from their synthetic precursor, phthalodinitrile.{{ref|milgrom-01}} <br />
<br />
== Biological Macrocycles == <br />
* [[Heme]], the active site in the [[hemoglobin]] (the protein in [[blood]] that transports oxygen) is a [[porphyrin]] containing iron.<br />
* [[Chlorophyll]], the green [[photosynthetic pigment]] found in [[plants]] contains a [[chlorin]] ring.<br />
* [[Vitamin B12]], contains a [[corrin]] ring.<br />
<br />
== Related Molecular Categories ==<br />
* [[Ligand]]: an atom, ion or functional group that is bonded to one or more central atoms or ions.<br />
* [[Chelate]]: a multidentate ligand, containing more than one donor atom. <br />
* Cryptand: a macrocycle with multiple loops (e.g. bicyclic).<br />
* [[Rotaxane]]: macrocycle(s) stuck on a stick, generally freely rotating.<br />
* [[Catenane]]: interlocked molecular rings (like a chain).<br />
* [[Molecular knot]]: a molecule in the shape of a knot such as a trefoil knot.<br />
