PdII2L4-type coordination cages up to three nanometers in size

Kay Severin, Rosario Scopelliti, Matthew David Wise, Suzanne Maria Jansze

The utilization of large ligands in coordination-based self-assembly represents an attractive strategy for the construction of supramolecular assemblies more than two nanometers in size. However, the implementation of this strategy is hampered by the fact ...

The Ligand Aspect Ratio as a Decisive Factor for the Self-Assembly of Coordination Cages

Kay Severin, Rosario Scopelliti, Euro Solari, Philip Pattison, Konstantin Zhurov, Matthew David Wise, Alba Finelli, Giacomo Cecot, Suzanne Maria Jansze

It is possible to control the geometry and the composition of metallasupramolecular assemblies via the aspect ratio of their ligands. This point is demonstrated for a series of iron- and palladium-based coordination cages. Functionalized clathrochelate com ...

Carboxylic Acid Functionalized Clathrochelate Complexes: Large, Robust, and Easy-to-Access Metalloligands

Kay Severin, Rosario Scopelliti, Euro Solari, Kurt Schenk, Philip Pattison, Mathieu Jérémie Marmier, Matthew David Wise

Polycarboxylate ligands are among the most important building blocks for the synthesis of metal–organic frameworks (MOFs). The ability to access these ligands in an efficient way is of key importance for future applications of MOFs. Here, we demonstrate th ...

Large, heterometallic coordination cages based on ditopic metallo-ligands with 3-pyridyl donor groups

Kay Severin, Rosario Scopelliti, Euro Solari, Philip Pattison, Matthew David Wise

Ditopic N-donor ligands with terminal 4-pyridyl groups are omnipresent in coordination-based self-assembly. The utilization of ligands with 3-pyridyl donor groups is significantly less common, because the intrinsic conformational flexibility of these ligan ...

Functionalised clathrochelate complexes as supramolecular building blocks

Matthew David Wise

The work presented in this thesis entails the synthesis and characterisation of new iron(II) tris(dioxime) clathrochelate complexes functionalised with apical capping groups suitable for supramolecular applications, and their subsequent incorporation into ...

Clathrochelate-based bipyridyl ligands of nanoscale dimensions: easy-to-access building blocks for supramolecular chemistry

Kay Severin, Rosario Scopelliti, Mirela Pascu, Matthew David Wise, Albert Ruggi

Boronic acid-capped clathrochelates were used to build rigid, linear bipyridyl ligands with adjustable lengths between 1.5 and 5.4 nm. The syntheses can be accomplished in one or two steps from simple starting materials. The potential of these ligands as b ...
