ABSTRACT
An adaptable Fe(II) tetrahedral cage, [Fe4L4][BF4]8 (L = tris(4-(((E)-pyridin-2-ylmethylene)amino)phenyl) phosphate), has been synthesised via self-assembly. By modulating the orientation of its pendant P=O groups, the cage was found to be capable of encapsulating anionic, neutral, and cationic guests, which was confirmed in the solid state via single-crystal X-ray diffraction (SCXRD) and in solution by high-resolution mass spectroscopy (HR-MS), as well as by NMR (1H, 19F, 31P) studies where possible.
