A pentanuclear palladium(II) complex has been prepared by incorporating non‐chelating ligands in a supramolecular framework by using a self‐assembly method. The unprecedented title complex is heteroleptic, planar, and polycyclic and resembles the shape of a pentagram. Interim paths leading to the star were probed to decipher related dynamics of the system. The molecular shape resembles a starfish as shown in the cover artwork.
