Graphical Abstract

Stabile Umgebung: Das [{Cu(NH3)2}2]2+-Dimer mit schwacher Cuprophilie wird in den Hohlräumen eines supramolekularen Gerüsts stabilisiert (siehe Struktur). Diese Stabilisierung eines sonst unbeständigen CuI-Dimers in einer supramolekularen Matrix bietet eine neuartige Möglichkeit, das isolierte Dimer systematisch – im Grundzustand und im angeregten Zustand – zu untersuchen.
