Abstract

Phosphinate ligands allow for the transformation of a calix[4]arene supported [Mn^III₂Mn^II₂] tetramer cluster motif into an unusual [Mn^IIIMn^II]₂ dimer of dimers; the clusters self-assemble in the crystal to form bi-layer arrays reminiscent of the typical packing of calixarene solvates.
