title: Assembly of a tri-silver metallo-capsule incorporating a tripodal tris-pyridyl ligand.
abstract: A trinuclear metallo-capsule has been assembled from a new tripodal pyridyl ligand and three silver(I) ions; the X-ray structure shows the presence of a Ag-Ag interaction in the solid state giving rise to a non-symmetric capsule arrangement while NMR evidence indicates that the structure in solution is symmetrical.
