A topologically non-trivial metallosupramolecular structure is formed by a Pd4L4 complex in which interweaving and twisting of the ligands results in both Solomon's Link and figure-of-eight ring motifs. In the solid state, six of these complexes assemble into a hollow spheroid that closely resembles a stellated truncated hexahedron.
