All square : Treatment of m ‐phenylenebis(β‐diketones) with [Cu(NH 3 ) 4 ] 2+ yields molecular squares rather than the expected hexagons. The squares react readily with guests such as C 60 (see structure) and 4,4′‐bipyridine. They are also effective for the storage of H 2 gas, both at 77 K and at room temperature.
