Porphyrins cubed: A series of self-assembled M8L6 cubic cages that enclose a volume in excess of 1300 A3 were synthesized (see scheme). The porphyrinic walls of the cubes provide favorable sites for pnp interactions, leading to selectivity between large and chemically similar aromatic guests: three molecules of coronene are incorporated and the higher fullerenes C70nC84 are selectively bound in the presence of
