Product Data Sheet
Cyclen
Catalog No. A86735
Cyclen is a macrocyclic tetraamine chelating agent known for its specific coordination properties towards lithium ions. It serves as a precursor for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast agents and plays a crucial role in the synthesis of effective macrocyclic chelates. Additionally, Cyclen facilitates the development of polyamide nanofiltration membranes by acting as a structural regulator in the interfacial polymerization of polyethyleneimine and trimesoyl chloride, enhancing lithium and magnesium ion separation efficiency. Its unique cavity structure allows for selective ion binding, making it valuable in various research applications.
