Hexacyclen hexahydrochloride

Hexacyclen (Cycloalkene) is an organic compound characterized by a distinctive macrocyclic structure composed of six nitrogen-containing rings. Known for its metal ion-binding capability, Hexacyclen is frequently employed as a chelating agent in chemistry and biochemistry for selectively binding metal ions in proteins or enzymes to study their structure and function. Additionally, Hexacyclen can serve as a cancer inhibitor.
