• and size of their cavity requires often tedious de-novo synthesis. Eventually, these drawbacks have been tackled by synthesizing discrete supramolecular hosts based on metal–ligand coordination-driven self-assembly [15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][52]. This approach not only solved the issue with low

The newly designed TPE-based tetraimidazole donor 19 has been treated with 180°/120° trans-Pt(II) acceptors which led to the coordination-driven self-assembly of 3D discrete molecular cages in aqueous medium (Figure 5
