We report a series of four cyclams and cross-bridged cyclams, N-functionalized by one hydroxyethyl arm, which may incorporate additional methyl(s) group(s). The Cu(II) and Zn(II) complexes of these ligands were synthesized and fully characterized. The investigation of the metal complexes in solid-state and in solution was carried via X-ray diffraction, NMR, EPR, absorption spectroscopy and DFT calculations.
