The preparation of functionalized, heteroleptic Pd x L2x coordination cages is desirable for catalytic and optoelectronic applications. Current rational design of these cages uses the angle between metal-binding (∠ sites of the di(pyridyl)arene linker to predict the topology of homoleptic cages obtained via non-covalent chemistry. However, this model neglects the contributions of steric bulk between the pyridyl residues-a prerequisite for endohedrally functionalized cages, and fails to rationalize heteroleptic cages. We des
