A Hydrazone-based Face-capped [Zn6(L)4]12+ Octahedron with Portals Poised for Hydrogen Bond Donation: the 'Goldilocks' Zone of Anion Templation and Recognition

We report the formation of a [Zn6(L)4] 12+ octahedron, which is formed through subcomponent self-assembly of hydrazones. Key to the assembly process is the anion present. Weakly coordinating bistriflimide results...
