Chemically Triggered Assembly of Chiral Triangular Metallomacrocycles.
Self-assembly of chiral, half-sandwich complexes results in the formation of triangular metallomacrocycles under complete stereocontrol and in quantitative yields. The assembly-disassembly process can be triggered by the addition of acid or base (see scheme).
