Self-Assembled M 24 L 48 Polyhedra and Their Sharp Structural Switch upon Subtle Ligand Variation
Abstract
Two Molecular Spheres: Viruses form highly symmetrical coat structures, capsids, through the assembly of multiple lower-symmetry protein precursors. Recently, chemists have sought to emulate this process on a smaller scale, relying on the assembly of organic molecular struts and metal ions, rather than proteins. Sun et al. (p. 1144 , published online 29 April; see the Perspective by Stefankiewicz and Sanders ) now demonstrate that a mixture of palladium ions and V-shaped bridging ligands can self-assemble into a hollow, nearly spherical polyhedron with 24 vertices and a central diameter of 4 nanometers. The assembly process was highly sensitive to the ligand angle; a subtle average decrease generated instead a smaller 12-vertex product.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
