Abstract

Exo-functionalized Pd2L4 cage compounds with attached Ru(II) pyridine complexes were prepared via coordination-driven self-assembly. Unlike most of the previously reported palladium(II) cages, one of these metallocages exhibits an exceptionally high quantum yield of 66%. The presented approach is promising to obtain luminescent coordination complexes for various applications.
