A chiral member of the family of organic hexameric cages

Abstract

A cubic nanocage (O symmetry) that exhibits inherent chirality and has a covalent, rigid skeleton with molecule-sized entrance portals was obtained by means of dynamic covalent chemistry using a reaction between aldehyde-functionalized resorcin[4]arene and hydrazine.
