Bridging the gap : Two metal‐containing moieties, [CpRuCNRuCp] + and [Au(CN) 4 ] − , are bridged through a pta ligand in the P,N coordination mode in a water‐soluble, air‐stable heterobimetallic coordination polymer (see picture, Au orange, Ru turquoise, C gray, N blue, P purple). This complex exhibits gel‐like behavior in water, specifically a thermally controlled volume transition. pta=1,3,5‐triaza‐7‐phosphaadamantane, Cp=cyclopentadienyl.
