A combination of ligands produces a molecular scaffold allowing the extraction of lanthanide ions of two types from a mixture of both in solution to locate them selectively at determined positions within a [LnLn′Ln] coordination complex. This efficient method to produce trinuclear heterometallic coordination complexes of lanthanides is based on the size disparity between the different metal ions and is fully corroborated by single crystal X‐ray diffraction and mass spectrometry.
