Encapsulation of a guest molecule in a strained form: an extended 36-membered dodecanuclear manganese metallamacrocycle that accommodates a cyclooctane in the S4 symmetry conformation.
An extended 36-membered dodecanuclear manganese metallamacrocycle with S12 symmetry has been synthesized using the ligand N-cyclohexanoylsalicylhydrazide (H3chxshz) by a self-assembly that accommodates a cyclooctane of conformationally strained S4 symmetry in its hydrophobic cavity.
