High symmetry metallosupramolecular architectures (MSAs) have been exploited for a
range of applications including molecular recognition, catalysis and drug delivery. Recently …

Conspectus Stoddart's “blue box”(B 4+), is one of the most iconic molecules in the recent
history of chemistry. This rectangular tetracationic cyclophane has not only the ability to …

A template-directed protocol, which capitalizes on donor–acceptor interactions, is employed
to synthesize a semi-rigid cyclophane (ExBox 4+) that adopts a box-like geometry and is …

Metallosupramolecular architectures are beginning to be exploited for a range of
applications including drug delivery, catalysis, molecular recognition, and sensing. For the …

Multicavity [Pd n (L) 4] 2 n+ metallosupramolecular cages based on long backboned ligands
are an attractive approach to increasing molecular size without loss of the binding specificity …

Palladium (II) has four coordination sites and forms square planar complexes. Discrete self-
assemblies are generated by the combination of a variety of palladium (II) components and …

Ligand geometry plays an important role in designing metallosupramolecules. Among
various types of ligands used for coordination driven self-assemblies, orientations of …

The cavities of metallosupramolecular cages can be used to mimic the central spaces of
naturally occurring proteins and bind a wide variety of molecular guests. A range of potential …

Cyclophanes, especially those where pyridinium units in conjugation with each other are
linked up face-to-face within platforms that are held approximately 7 Å apart by rigid linkers …

A tetragold (I) rectangle‐like metallocage containing two pyrene‐bis‐imidazolylidene
ligands and two carbazolyl‐bis‐alkynyl linkers is used for the encapsulation of a series of …
