Macrocycles typically hinder the reactivity of adjacent functional groups in mechanically interlocked molecules due to steric shielding. Herein, we report a [2]rotaxane in which a bulky macrocycle in ...

Supramolecular self-assembly is a promising tool to develop multifunctional theranostic agents and has recently entered the field of radiochemistry. In this work, lantern-shaped [Pd2L4]4+ metallacages...

Nature Biotechnology - Big pharma and investors are piling into the precision radiation space as the next generation of increasingly potent targeted α-particle therapies promises to destroy...

Gold(III) organometallic complexes, particularly cyclometalated Au(III) compounds, have emerged as powerful tools in catalysis and bioinorganic chemistry, offering unique reactivity distinct from the...

The synthesis of gold metallacages is raising interest and overcoming challenges in the construction of the systems, revealing exciting properties with potential applications in diverse fields. This review analyzes the advances and perspectives of this emerging family of assemblies.

Metallacages (MCgs) are three-dimensional (3D)-supramolecular coordination complexes (SCCs) obtained by the self-assembly of metal ions with donor lig…
