Hollow cylinders : Gallium‐ and gallium–zinc‐seamed pyrogallol[4]arene nanoassemblies were studied in the solution phase through various methods. The results reveal their rearrangement from spheres in the solid state to toroids in solution (see, for example, PgC 4 GaZn) illustrating the structural flexibility of gallium in the metal‐seamed frameworks.
