Component exchange as a synthetically advantageous strategy for the preparation of bicyclic cage compounds

Abstract

Macrobicyclic triphosphazides are able to reversibly exchange one of their tripodal components by means of a dynamic disassembly–reassembly process; surprisingly this strategy provides better yields of cage compounds than a direct tripod–tripod coupling.
