Abstract

Varying the length of phenanthrene-derived ligands switches the selective assembly of M^II_nL_n metal–organic cages (MOCs, n = 6 or 8) between tetrahedral, square, or triangular architectures. The limit of this approach is explored for both Cu₂ and Rh₂ paddlewheel MOCs, and supported by solution, solid-state and computational analysis.
