Abstract

Supramolecular complexes between two cavity-appended porphyrin hosts and three bifunctional guests are described. The host with a single cavity exclusively forms dimers with the bifunctional guests, while the double cavity host yields tetramers and higher order assemblies. The role of allosteric interactions in the binding and assembly process is highlighted.
