Abstract

Abstract : A self‐sorting network comprising six different hydrogen bonding‐motifs is presented. Detailed analysis of the pairwise molecular recognition behavior of each hydrogen‐bonding motif by NMR spectroscopy, single‐crystal studies, and DFT allowed the construction of cascades exploiting integrative and non‐integrative narcissistic and social self‐sorted product distributions. Multiple distinct pathways within the network could be created depending on the presence or absence of different components. More information can be found in the Full Paper by C. Fonseca Guerra, A. J. Wilson, et al. on page 785 .
