The simple combination of the saccharate ion with Cu II and 1,10‐phenanthroline yields two remarkable and structurally distinct chiral clusters. Each of the clusters, which are approximately 2.6 nm across, contains 21 Cu II centers, six saccharate pentaanions, and twelve 1,10‐phenanthroline ligands. For more details see the Full Paper by B. F. Abrahams, R. Robson et al. on page 7454 ff.
