Article abstract of DOI:10.1016/S0040-4039(98)00610-8

High yield syntheses of two new deuterium labelled compound 2 and 3 based on the [22] macrocyclic backbone bearing two catechol units was achieved. The solid state structure of the tetradeuterated compound 3 was elucidated by X-ray diffraction methods. Th
