Abstract
Twelve unique D2d-symmetric extended-tetrahedral tetrapyridylbimesityl ligands 1 and six metal cations (Ni2+ and Cu2+) assemble to generate discrete cubic architectures with an Oh symmetry, as revealed by X-ray crystallographic analyses. The internal cavity dimensions of the cubes are in excess of ca. 3000 Å3. The metal-organic cuboid discrete cages with such large internal cavity have been characterized by X-ray crystallography for the first time.
