Depending on cage topology, a flexible ligand can bury or expose its reactive site: @angewandtechemie.bsky.social, Aleks, Zhiwei, and Priscila created a multi-stimuli responsive network from adaptive benzil-based Pd(II) #cages @solvationsci.bsky.social @grk2376.bsky.social doi.org/10.1002/anie...

Read now in Chem @cellpress.bsky.social how @eliebenchimol.bsky.social uses adjacent backbone interactions (ABI) to control self-sorting of chiral heteroleptic Pd3A2B4 isosceles triangles („star destroyers“) and Pd4A4C4 pseudo-tetrahedra: doi.org/10.1016/j.ch... @grk2376.bsky.social

Now online as 🌶️ Hot Paper 📄 in @angewandtechemie.bsky.social: see how we combine Pd(II) and Pt(II) nodes with dynamic covalent chemistry to assemble highly robust interpenetrated double cages capable of abstracting halides from organic substrates: doi.org/10.1002/anie... @solvationsci.bsky.social

We found a new catenation mode of Pd4L8 interpenetrated double cages: instead of a classic D4-symmetric dimer, the staggered structure has C2h symmetry, stabilized by non-covalent interactions. Just out in @angew_chem Support: RESOLV @SolvationSci @desy doi.org/10.1002/anie...
