Seven of the best : A dynamic combinatorial library of polycatenated tetrahedra was prepared by complexation between a dynamic Fe 4 L 6 tetrahedral cage, constructed from ligands containing an electron‐deficient naphthalenediimide core, and an electron‐rich aromatic crown ether, 1,5‐dinaphtho[38]crown‐10. The highest order species in the library is the tetrahedral [7]catenane.
