Construction of a self-assembled cage complex through three different ZnII centers is achieved using a Zn porphyrin ligand with four 2,2′-bipyridin-5-yl (bpy) groups. The multiporphyrin cage encapsulates guest molecules unsymmetrically by π-π interactions. Well-balanced aqueous conditions, which allow the formation of both tris(bpy) and hydrated bis(bpy) ZnII units, result in the unsymmetrical yet well-defined supramolecular structure. Copyright
