Abstract

A phosphorescent cage of the form [Pd₄Ru₈]²⁴⁺ is reported. The cage was formed using the metalloligand [Ru(dtbubpy)₂(qpy)]²⁺, where qpy = 4,4′:2′,2′′:4′′,4′′′-quaterpyridine and dtbubpy = 4,4′-di-tert-butyl-2,2′-bipyridine. The cage has been characterised by NMR, ESI-MS, TEM and X-ray diffraction analyses and its emission properties elucidated by steady-state and time-resolved emission spectroscopy.
