Comparison of the known MnL2n (M=PtII or PdII) structures according to the bite angle of their constituent ligands with the catenated M8L16 architecture 2. Metal‐mediated self‐assembly of a ligand with a 60° bite angle can give rise to M3L6 (1 a) or M4L8 structures (1 b or 1 c). In previous studies, only M2L4 cage structures were shown to undergo catenation to give M4L8 interlocked dimers.
