Self-assembly of supramolecular triangles with neutral trans-PdCl2 directing units†
Abstract
Pd(II)-directed self-assembly of homoleptic metal–polypyridyl complexes functionalized with 3-pyridyl groups gives rise to supramolecular metallo-triangles as confirmed by a combination of analytical techniques.
