Abstract
Macrocycles consisted of pyridine rings and acetylene bonds were prepared by Eglinton coupling from a tandem precursor bearing two terminal alkynyl groups. The composition of molecular size in the cyclized products changed by the reaction solvent. In pyridine, 9-meric and bigger macrocycles were obtained, while that of 6-mer was not. On the other hand, in pyridine/THF mixed solvent, the 6-mer was obtained as a major product.
