title: Molecular self-recognition: a chiral [Mn(II)6] wheel via donor-acceptor π···π contacts and H-bonds.
abstract: A multinucleating ligand capable of establishing different types of intermolecular interactions, when combined with acetate groups leads to the assembly of a chiral [Mn(II)3] cluster poised for a process of self-recognition through a combination of perfectly complementary weak forces.
