Concentration, temperature and/or solvent polarity control the speciation on the metal-directed self-assembly of a ditopic pyridyl ligand L with cis-protected Pd(ii) metal centers. This results into a controllable dynamic system, involving a [Pd2L2](6+) metallacycle and a [Pd4L4](12+) ring-in-ring complex.

Recently, owing to their special spatial structures, peptide-based macrocycles have shown tremendous promise and aroused great interest in multidisciplinary research ranging from potent antibiotics against resistant strains to functional biomaterials with novel properties. Besides traditional monocyclic peptides, many fascinating polycyclic and remarkable higher-order cyclic, spherical and cylindric peptidic systems have come into the limelight owing to breakthroughs in various chemical (, native chemical ligation and transition metal catalysis), biological (, post-translational enzymatic modification and genetic code reprogramming), and supramolecular (, mechanically interlocked, metal-directed folding and self-assembly noncovalent interactions) macrocyclization strategies developed in recent decades. In this tutorial review, diverse state-of-the-art macrocyclization methodologies and techniques for peptides and peptidomimetics are surveyed and discussed, with insights into their practical advantages and intrinsic limitations.

Square-like metallamacrocyclic palladium(II) complexes [] () were synthesized by reacting aromatic dipyrazole ligands (HL-HL with pyromellitic arylimide-, 1,4,5,8-naphthalenetetracarboxylic arylimide-, and anthracene-based aromatic groups, respectively) with dipalladium corners ([(bpy)Pd(NO)](NO), [(dmbpy)Pd(NO)](NO), or [(phen)Pd(NO)](NO), where bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine, dmbpy = 4,4'-dimethyl-2,2'-bipyridine, and phen = 1,10-phenanthroline) in aqueous solutions via metal-directed self-assembly. Metallamacrocycles were fully characterized by H and C nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and electrospray ionization mass spectrometry, and the square structure of 8NO was further confirmed via single crystal X-ray diffraction. These square-like metallamacrocycles exhibit effective performance for iodine adsorption.

Owing to their structural designability and tuneable properties, supramolecular metal-organic complexes have recently emerged as promising candidates for the sensing and detection of molecules and anions. Herein, we synthesised three tripyrazolate-linked [ML] metallocages with the formulas [(bpyPd)L](NO) (1), [(dmbpyPd)L](NO) (2), and [(phenPd)L](NO) (3) (HL = tris(4-(5-(trifluoromethyl)-1-pyrazol-3-yl)phenyl)amine, bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine, dmbpy = 4,4'-dimethylbipyridine, phen = 1,10-phenanthroline). Crystallography revealed that metal-directed coordination and the bidentate chelate behaviour of the ligand induced the self-assembly of supramolecular metal-organic cages.

Metal-directed interfacial self-assembly of well-defined coordination polymer (CP) ultrathin films can control the metal complex arrangement and distribution at the molecular level, providing a convenient route for the design and fabrication of novel opto-electrical devices and heterogeneous catalysts. Here, we report the assembly of two series of CP multilayers with the transition-metal ions of Fe, Co, Zn and Tb as connectors and tripodal terpyridyl ligands of 4,4',4″-(1,3,5-triazine-2,4,6-triyl)tris(1-(4-([2,2':6',2″-terpyridin]-4'-yl)benzyl)pyridin-1-ium) (TerPyTa) and 4,4',4″-(benzene-1,3,5-triyl)tris(1-(4-([2,2':6',2″-terpyridin]-4'-yl)benzyl)pyridin-1-ium) (TerPyBen) as linkers at the air-water interface. The as-prepared Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) films display strong luminescence, with the emission wavelength and relative intensity dependent on both the metal ions and linkers; among them, the Zn-TerPyTa and Zn-TerPyBen CPs give off the strongest luminescent emission centered at about 370 nm with an emission lifetime of approximately 0.

Metal-directed self-assembly of constitutionally dynamic systems: control of the nuclearity of Pd(II)/Pt(II) metallacycles.

Self-assembly with the square-planar Pd(II) or Pt(II) (en)M(ONO) (en = ethylenediamine) complexes of ditopic ligands incorporating both ,'-dialkyl-4,4'-bipyridinium and -monoalkyl-4,4'-bipyridinium or -monoalkyl-2,7-diazapyrenium moieties leads to constitutionally dynamic systems responsive to the concentration of the components. At low concentrations, the metallamacrocyclic mononuclear [M] species is formed. In contrast, when the concentration is increased, a defined dinuclear [M] structure appears as a second species in equilibrium, becoming the major one at high concentrations.
