Here we show an elegant and general route to the assembly of a giant {M12C24} cage from 12 palladium ions (M) and 24 heterometallic octanuclear coordination cages (C = {Cr7Ni-Py2}). The molecule is 8 nm in size, and the methods for its synthesis and characterization provide a basis for future developments at this scale. ; Ferrando-Soria, Jesus Fernandez, Antonio Moreno Pineda, Eufemio Varey, Sarah A Adams, Ralph W Vitorica-Yrezabal, Inigo J Tuna, Floriana Timco, Grigore A Muryn, Christopher A Winpenny, Richard E P eng 2015/06/06 06:00 J Am Chem Soc. 2015 Jun 24;137(24):7644-7. doi: 10.1021/jacs.5b04664.
