TLDR
This work showcases selected examples of self-assembled cages whose guest uptake or even overall structural integrity is reversibly switched by light or small molecules with potential application in stimuli responsive materials (e.g., for sequestration of pollutants or stabilization of reactive compounds) up to functional nanosystems and molecular machines.Abstract:
ConspectusCompounds featuring one-dimensional regular arrangements of stacked metal complexes and alternating [cation–anion]∞ sequences have raised considerable interest owing to their peculiar electronic and optical properties as well as guest inclusion capabilities. While traditional ways to realize these structural motifs rely on crystalline compounds, exclusively existing in the solid state, recent progress in the area of metal-mediated supramolecular self-assembly allows for the rational synthesis of structurally well-defined short stretches of stacked metal complexes and cation–anion arrangements. Therefore, metal cations, counteranions, and suitably designed organic bridges are allowed to self-assemble in solution. While the bridges can be designed as cross-linkers to yield extended two- or three-dimensional networks such as layered materials, metal–organic frameworks (MOFs), or porous coordination polymers (PCPs), they can also be tailored to lead to discrete nanoscopic objects.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors demonstrate how the hydrogen bonding ability of a BINOL-based dialdehyde subcomponent dictated the stereochemical outcome of its subsequent self-assembly into one diastereomeric helicate form when bearing free hydroxy groups, and another in the case of its methylated congener.

Ligand Isomerism in Coordination Cages.
TL;DR: The complexation reactions of the ligands (L1, L2, and L3) with palladium(II) produced single discrete isomeric cages of Pd2L4 formulation in each case and thereby illustrated ligand-isomerism in coordination cages.

Supramolecular coordination: self-assembly of finite two- and three-dimensional ensembles.
TL;DR: In the early 1960s, the discovery of crown ethers and spherands by Pedersen, Lehn, and Cram3 led to the realization that small, complementary molecules can be made to recognize each other through non-covalent interactions such as hydrogen-bonding, charge-charge, donor-acceptor, π-π, van der Waals, hydrophilic and hydrophobic interactions to achieve these highly complex and often symmetrical architectures as mentioned in this paper.
