The Weak-Link Approach to the Synthesis of Inorganic Macrocycles

Homobimetallic macrocycles are prepared from flexible ligands in high yield by means of a new and general synthetic strategy called the “weak‐link approach” [Eq. (a)]. Small aromatic molecules can be aligned inside the cage based on their interactions with the two Rh centers of the macrocycle.

Small aromatic molecules can be aligned inside the cage based on their interactions with the two Rh centers of the macrocycle.
