Abstract

Reaction of [2+2] and [6+6] Schiff-base macrocycles with FeBr2 are reported, together with preliminary studies of the applications of the iron-containing products. In particular, we have investigated peroxidase-like activity and determination of H2O2, as well as their ability to act as catalysts for ring opening polymerization of cyclic esters.
