We report the first direct synthesis of a trans ‐III copper(II) complex of tetramethylcyclam. This new derivative is hexacoordinate in the solid state and square planar in solution. Reduction of this latter leads to a complex voltammetry pattern which could be explained considering an isomerization process.
