Abstract

Polytopic ligand design involves matching the coordination pocket composition with the metal ion coordination ‘algorithm’, but despite targeting [4 × 4] grids as the final outcome, metal ion preferences and ligand control can lead to widely varying complexes in the self-assembly process with Ni(II) and Cu(II).
