Abstract
Using ferrocene-based ligand systems, a series of heterobimetallic architectures of the general formula [PdmLn]x+ were designed with the aim of installing an opening and closing mechanism that would allow the release and binding of guest molecules. Palladium complex formation was achieved through coordination to pyridyl groups, and using 2-, 3-, and 4-pyridyl derivatives provided access to defined PdL, PdL2, and Pd2L4 structures, respectively. The supramolecular complexes were characterized using nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and infrared spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, and elemental analysis, and for some examples density functional theory calculations and single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. 1H NMR spectroscopy was used to investigate disassembly and reassembly of the metallosupramolecular structures. The former was induced by cleavage of the relatively labile Pd-Npyridyl bonds with the introduction of the competing ligands N,N'-dimethylaminopyridine (DMAP) and Cl- (using tetrabutylammonium chloride) to yield [Pd(DMAP)4]2+ and [PdCl4]2-, respectively. The process was found to be reversible for several of the heterodimetallic compounds, with the addition of H+ or Ag+ triggering complex reassembly. Guest binding studies with several architectures revealed interactions with the anionic guests p-toluenesulfonate and octyl sulfate, but not with neutral molecules. Furthermore, the release of guests was reversibly induced with Cl- ions as a stimulus.

Abstract
While water clusters play an essential role in the stability of biological structures, their ability to stabilize synthetic oligomers is less understood. We have synthesized a heptameric sheet-like aromatic oligoamide foldamer with ferrocene as turn unit. It shows strong interactions with water in the solid state and in solution. The water binding limits the fluxional processes resulting from the flexible ferrocene unit, highlighting the importance of such interactions for conformational studies on this class of molecule.

Abstract
Two new ferrocene-containing [Pd2(LFc)4]4+(X-)4 (where X- = BF4- or SbF6-) self-assembled cages (C·BF4 and C·SbF6) were synthesised from the known, rotationally flexible, 1,1'-bis(3-pyridylethynyl)ferrocene ligand (LFc), and characterised by 1H, 13C and diffusion ordered (DOSY) NMR and UV-visible absorption spectroscopies, high resolution electrospray ionisation mass spectrometry (HR-ESI-MS), elemental analysis, X-ray crystallography and cyclic voltammetry (CV). The molecular structures confirmed that cage-like systems (C·BF4 and C·SbF6) were generated. Similar to related [Pd2L4]4+(X-)4, C·SbF6 was able to interact with a range of neutral and anionic guests, with p-toluenesulfonate showing the strongest association constant. Cyclic voltammetry studies revealed that the cage systems were redox active. However, the redox potential of the cage was unperturbed upon the addition of guests.
