Abstract
Three luminescent tetranuclear macrocycles are obtained selectively, applying coordination-driven supramolecular processes to the reaction of 3,3′-bipyridine ligand with <italic>in situ</italic> formed Cu(<sc>i</sc>) bimetallic units bearing a coordination angle of <italic>ca.</italic> 120°.
