Self-assembly of a twelve-component hexanuclear metallomacrocycle constructed with a novel tri-amino ligand.
Reaction of the novel ligand cis,trans-1,3,5-triaminocyclohexane, which contains two types of metal binding sites trans to each other, with palladium(II) chloride results in the self assembly of a hexanuclear ring cluster that has been characterised both in the solid state and in solution.
