Abstract
Dendronized salicylidene-ethylenediamine (salen) compounds are prepared for the first time through diaza-Cope rearrangement in which the ethano carbons of the ethylenediamine (EDA) are substituted with two types of dendritic wedges: Fréchet-ether and ester-dendrons. The X-ray analysis of a dendritic salen with ester dendrons is presented.

General Procedure for diaza-Cope Rearrangements: The amount of 0.29 mmol meso-1,2-bis(2-hydroxyphenyl)-ethylenediamine(1) and 0.594 mmol of the specific formyl substituted dendron 2 or 3 are dissolved in ca. 20 mL MeCN and refluxed for approximately 4 h. In the cold, yellow crystals precipitate. Yield 225 mg (92%) for 6 and 245 mg (94%) for 7, respectively.

X-Ray structure analysis of 7: C56H40N2O10·2C3H6O: yellow crystals, crystal dimension 0.03 × 0.15 × 0.50 mm3; M = 1017.06; triclinic, space group P-1 (No. 2), a = 9.3498 (8), b = 11.7346 (11), c = 12.4850 (13) Å, α = 101.320 (6)°, β = 95.220 (5)°, γ = 96.393 (5)°, V = 1325.8 (2) Å3, Z = 1, µ(MoK
α) = 0.0.89 mm-1, T = 123 (2) K, F(000) = 534. 10418 Reflection up to 2θmax. = 50° were measured on a Nonius KappaCCD diffractometer with MoK
α radiation, 4134 of which were independent and used for all calculations. The structure was solved by direct methods and refined to F2 anisotropically, the H atoms were refined with a riding model. The final quality coefficient wR2 (F2) for all data was 0.2429, with a conventional R(F) = 0.0793 for 321 parameters and 88 restraints.

General Procedure for the Complexation of 7 with Transition Metal Cations M
²+
: The amount of 0.056 mmol of 7 are solved in 3 mL CH2Cl2 and 3 mL of a solution of the corresponding M2+-triflate is added at once. The resulting solution is refluxed for approximately 2 h. In the cold, the M2+-complexes precipitate. The nickel(II)-triflate gives 36.3 mg (68%) of N,N′-disalicylidene-meso-1,2-bis(3,5-benzoyl-oxydiphenyl)ethylenediaminocobalt(II)(8) and cobalt(II)-triflate gives 29.2 mg (55%) of N,N′-disalicylidene-meso-1,2-bis(3,5-benzoyloxydiphenyl)ethylenediaminonickel
(II)(9).
