Homochiral D4-symmetric metal–organic cages from stereogenic Ru(II) metalloligands for effective enantioseparation of atropisomeric molecules

Homochiral molecular capsules offer potential applications in chiral separation and stereospecific catalysis. Here, by pre-resolution of Δ/Λ-metalloligand precursors, the authors are able to assemble enantiopure supramolecular cages capable of stereoselective host-guest behaviour.
