Laura Neukirch, Guido H. Clever
Abstract
= 2-8) architectures that has so far been found experimentally. We next discuss strategies for increasing the structural complexity even further through the non-statistical self-assembly of heteroleptic cages, the orientational self-sorting of asymmetric ligands, and chiral self-sorting effects. Special emphasis will be placed on factors governing the particular self-assembly outcome as well as on rationalization approaches based on computations or geometrical considerations.
