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:

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:

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

Results of a beautiful collab with @ThorriGunnlaugs Dublin and C. Stein @TU_Muenchen #JustAccepted in @angew_chem 🎉 @elie_bench @HelzOConnor @BogoNicola show a Tröger base Pd2L4 cage as small chiral host inducing CD on fullerenes
