A remarkably adaptable nickel macrocycle , 1 , acts as a divergent receptor towards the globular cage molecues C 60 , o ‐C 2 B 10 H 12 , and P 4 S 3 . The macrocycle either interacts with two cages, or one cage perched in each cavity, or self‐associates as a dimeric divergent receptor with a cage perched in the available cavity of each macrocycle (see below).
