(when viewed from the bottom)
Ciampolini describes the compound which appellants identify as
11,11'-(1,2-ethanediyl)bis-1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane,
because Ciampolini describes a process (page 3528, reaction
scheme at the top of the page) for making Compound 2 (page
3527, col. 1) which has a structural formula identical to
either formula set out above. Ciampolini also describes other
bis-cyclams containing bridging groups. See Compounds 3, 4, 5
and 6.
Compounds 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 were converted into nickel(II)
and copper(II) complexes. Electrochemical parameters were
