Abstract
This review surveys the different binding motifs and properties of hemicaged and caged complexes bearing tripodal units with a benzene platform. Complexes of inorganic cations and anions are the objects of this review. The 1:1 stoichiometry frequently observed for hemicage host-guest complexes constitutes a general paradigm for binding, one to which is not always adhered. Insight into the impact of preorganization, host selectivity and functionality will become apparent. (C) 2012 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
