Equally, Schalley and Nitschke developed a guest-induced self-sorting based on two new Zn4L6 cages (Figure 5a) using the aldehyde 9 and the diamine subcomponents 7 and 8 that contained either the naphthalene diimide or zinc porphyrin moiety [51]. Both cages respond selectively to distinct

The fully reversible and clean switching between two multicomponent supramolecular architectures can be monitored by fluorescence changes at the zinc porphyrin
