Abstract
A series of [Pd2L4]4+(X-) 4 metallosupramolecular architectures have been synthesised where X- =, OTf-, OMs- or OTs- and L = 2,6-bis(pyridin-3-ylethynyl)pyridine. These systems have been characterised by NMR, IR and UV-vis spectroscopies, mass spectrometry, elemental analysis and, in several cases, by X-ray crystallography. Using these solution-and solid-state methods, we have investigated the exohedral and endohedral interactions of various anions with these cationic assemblies.
