Abstract

A guiding light is sufficient to switch back and forth between the flexible and the stretched, rigid form of a self-assembled coordination cage based on two square-planar-coordinated PdII ions and four ligands with a photochromic dithienylethene (DTE) backbone. The light-driven interconversion is clean and reversible and allows to control the encapsulation and release of the guest [B12F12]2-. Copyright © 2013 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim.
