Complementary dynamic assembly around an iron(III) cation.
A new system for the complementary coordination of two different terdentate ligands based on a 2-(hydroxyamino)-1,3,5-triazine motif around a ferric cation is reported. Prototropic switching between hetero- and homoligand complexes proceeds with more than 95% selectivity.
