Research Abstract |
Cluster compounds composed of organic molecules and ions exhibit specific properties and functions. In this work, we aimed at design of novel macrocyclic metal complexes as unique platforms for the construction of various cluster compounds such as water nano-clusters. As the result, it was found that the macrocyclic complexes and their aggregates functioned as excellent platforms for the various cluster formation.
