Control of self-sorting regimes is achieved through adjustment of steric interactions in self-assembled coordination cages. The self-assembly regime of dynamic mixtures of heteroleptic cages is followed by HPLC to show...
Two new calix[4]resorcinarene-based metal-coordinated cages have been synthesized through tuning metal ions, where they featured catalytic activities for the Knoevenagel condensation reaction under solvent-free conditions.
