Heteroleptic coordination cages, nonstatistically assembled from a set of matching ligands,
can be obtained by mixing individual components or via cage-to-cage transformations from …

Metal–organic cages are versatile supramolecular architectures, fulfilling various distinct
roles in the mediation of catalysed chemical reactions. M n L2 n cages have become …

A heteroleptic [Pd2L2L'2] 4+ coordination cage containing a photoswitchable azobenzene-
derived ligand catalyzes the Michael addition reaction between methyl vinyl ketone and …

Lantern-shaped cages are generally comprised of two square planar metal ions linked by
four ditopic ligands. They mainly form easily and predictably and make a structure with a …

Integrating symmetry-reducing methods into self-assembly methodology is desirable to
efficiently realise the full potential of molecular cages as hosts and catalysts. Although …

The effect of host–guest interactions on the chemistry of encapsulated molecules is a
fascinating field of research that has gained momentum in recent years. Much of the work in …

Molecular self-assembly is a widely recognized approach for fabricating biomimetic
functional nanostructures. Here, we report the synthesis of two giant hollow coronoid-like …

Natural proteins must fold into complex three-dimensional structures to achieve excellent
mechanical properties vital for biological functions, but this has proven to be exceptionally …

Clever and co-workers have developed an elegant method for the quantitative synthesis of a
low-symmetry heteroleptic [Pd 2 (LA)(LB)(LC)(LD)] 4+ cage. The cage is formed under …

An efficient approach was developed for the synthesis of the well-known BlueCage by pre-
bridging two 2, 4, 6-tris (4-pyridyl)-1, 3, 5-triazine (TPT) panels with one linker followed by …
