title = "Assembling Quasi-enantiomeric Octahedral Complexes of Different Metals via Quasi-racemate Crystallization",
abstract = "Aiming at a general methodology for binary co-assembly of complexes of different metals through quasiracemate crystallization, the hexadentate ligand 1 comprised of the chiral bipyrrolidine core and two bipyridine peripheral arms is introduced. Ligand 1 was found to bind in a fully diastereoselective and uniform mode around ZnII, FeII and CdII giving coordinatively inert octahedral {"}chiral-at-metal{"} complexes with the Δ4Λ2/Λ4Δ2 wrapping mode. Equimolar mixtures of quasienantiomeric pairs of these complexes exhibited a clear tendency to pack as quasiracemates as was revealed from the crystallographic structures of [(R,R)-1-Zn](PF6)2/[(S,S)-1-Fe](PF6)2 and [(R,R)-1-Zn](PF6)2/[(S,S)-1-Cd](PF6)2, in an isomorphous fashion to that of the racemic compound [rac-1-Zn](PF6)2 in space group C2/c.",
