Depending on cage topology, a flexible ligand can bury or expose its reactive site: @angewandtechemie.bsky.social, Aleks, Zhiwei, and Priscila created a multi-stimuli responsive network from adaptive benzil-based Pd(II) #cages @solvationsci.bsky.social @grk2376.bsky.social doi.org/10.1002/anie...

Registration for SupraChem2026 is open! Join us in Dortmund from March 8th - 10th 2026 for sharing the latest developments in supramolecular chemistry, including poster presentations, about 20 contributed talks and prize lectures for the new GDCh SupraChem PhD award!

Read now in Chem @cellpress.bsky.social how @eliebenchimol.bsky.social uses adjacent backbone interactions (ABI) to control self-sorting of chiral heteroleptic Pd3A2B4 isosceles triangles („star destroyers“) and Pd4A4C4 pseudo-tetrahedra: doi.org/10.1016/j.ch... @grk2376.bsky.social

Now online as 🌶️ Hot Paper 📄 in @angewandtechemie.bsky.social: see how we combine Pd(II) and Pt(II) nodes with dynamic covalent chemistry to assemble highly robust interpenetrated double cages capable of abstracting halides from organic substrates: doi.org/10.1002/anie... @solvationsci.bsky.social

We made it! Thanks to everybody in this wonderful team!

Many thanks to GDCh, Founding Team & our sister societies (RSC MASC, SCF Groupe de Chim. Supramol.)! @polbesenius.bsky.social @cleverlab.bsky.social @vkrbek.bsky.social @annajmcconnell.bsky.social @pappasgroup.bsky.social @medbioinorgchem.bsky.social @niemeyergroup.bsky.social , Mastalerz, Würthner

Supramolecular chemistry has officially "grown up" in Germany. On behalf of the 10-person Founding Team👇, I am happy to announce the creation of section SupraChem within the German Chemical Society! 🍾 GDCh members please consider joining asap via www.gdch.de/suprachem @gdch.bsky.social

Finally, @cleverlab.bsky.social explore the mechanism of interpenetration of Pd2L4 coordination cages mediated by changes in solvation. www.nature.com/articles/s41... 5/5

Self-assembly, interlocking, interconversion and anion-binding catalysis in phenoxazine-based Pd2L4 and Pd4L8 coordination cages - Nature Communications

While Pd2L4-type coordination cages tend to form interlocked dimers, isolation and characterization of both the cage and its interlocked dimer is very challenging. Herein, the authors report the synth...

Last Wednesday I had the honor of receiving the @solvationsci.bsky.social PhD award from the hands of Dr. Klaus Engel during the new year's reception of RESOLV at the TU Dortmund. It rewards my contribution on studying solvation effects on caged with @cleverlab.bsky.social 🧑‍🔬🕺🏻🙏🏻

Happy to share that I was awarded the Bayer Promotion PhD prize from Technische Universität Dortmund for my research with @cleverlab.bsky.social Honored to receive this and nice be back in Dortmund for a short time. 🧑‍🔬🙏🏻

Happy to see the 2nd chapter of my thesis work with @cleverlab.bsky.social out in JACS. We show how a multicage system can be used to segregate multiple guests. #justaccepted pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/...

Guest Segregation in Heteromeric Multicage Systems

We found a new catenation mode of Pd4L8 interpenetrated double cages: instead of a classic D4-symmetric dimer, the staggered structure has C2h symmetry, stabilized by non-covalent interactions. Just out in @angew_chem Support: RESOLV @SolvationSci @desy doi.org/10.1002/anie...
