Dalton Trans., 2013, Advance Article
DOI: 10.1039/C3DT50968K, Communication

Matjaz Kozelj, Boris Orel
Several polyhedral silsesquioxanes could be prepared from silsesquioxane resins or trifunctional silane hydrolyzates in a process catalyzed by various N-heterocyclic carbenes. NHCs also catalyze a rearrangement of existing cages and a scrambling between two different cages.

Monitoring helical twists and effective molarities in dinuclear triple-stranded lanthanide helicates

Dalton Trans., 2013, Advance Article
DOI: 10.1039/C3DT50941A, Paper

Patrick E. Ryan, Laure Guenee, Claude Piguet
Despite the variable numbers of torsional degrees of freedom between L1 and L10, the resulting dinuclear triple-stranded helicates [Ln₂(L)₃] display similar structures and stabilities. The abnormally low effective molarity detected for L9 can be assigned to solvation effects, a new tool for controlling complexity in the self-assembly process.

Bis-functionalized ferrocenyl (fC) units were attached to organo-functionalized double-decker [R^FSn₄S₆] clusters to form criss-cross-type intramolecular bridges. This was realized by two different synthetic approaches, leading to different [(R^fCSn₂)₂S₄] cage structures in the crystalline products 1 and 2 with different electrochemical stabilities.

Tetra-armed cyclens with two kinds of aromatic side-arms behave like argentivorous molecules in the solid-state and in solution; aromatic side-arms with high electron densities preferentially cover the silver ions incorporated into the ligand cavities.
