Binding modes of high stoichiometry guest complexes with a Co8L12 cage uncovered by mass spectrometry†
Abstract
We demonstrate how different modes of guest binding with a Co8L12 cubic cage can be determined using ESI-MS. High stoichiometry guest binding was observed, with the guests preferentially binding externally, but internal guest inclusion was also seen at higher guest loading.
