Abstract

Three-component self-assembly of a cis-blocked 90° Pd(II) acceptor with a mixture of a tetraimidazole and a linear dipyridyl donor self-discriminated into unusual Pd₈ molecular swing (1) and Pd₆ molecular boat (2), which are characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis; their ability to bind C₆₀ in solution is established by fluorescence titration.
