Merging strong and weak coordination motifs in the integrative self-sorting of a 5-component trapezoid and scalene triangle

摘要

In a dynamic six-component library, the formation of the rather weak HETPYP-I complexation can be enforced by exploiting the orthogonality and high stability of its counterpart in the sorting process, a HETTAP complex. The concept was used in a follow-up integrative self-sorting, enabling the formation of two five-component supramolecular structures: a trapezoid and a scalene triangle.
