  • The synthesis of molecular nanostructures often requires the variation of several parameters, such as stoichiometry, pH, counter-ion etc. Here, the authors report a flow reaction array with algorithmic control which is used as a ‘search engine’ to isolate six nanoscale clusters from a massive parameter space.

  • The most complex non-DNA molecular knot prepared so far is self-assembled around a chloride anion from five metal cations, five bis-aldehyde and five bis-amine building blocks, in a one-pot reaction. The X-ray crystal structure of the 160-atom-loop pentafoil knot reveals a symmetrical closed-loop double helicate with a chloride anion held at its centre by ten CH···Cl− hydrogen bonds.
