Supramolecular isomerism in multivalent metal-templated assemblies with topochemical influence in the regioselective synthesis of tetrakis(2-pyridyl)cyclobutane isomers.

An unprecedented example of supramolecular isomerism based on 2D hydrogen-bonded multi-component networks that leads to the preparation of different photoproducts via a topochemical transformation is reported.
