Cage Structured Compounds
Anita Gupta, H. Kaur, Ishika Aggarwal, Koushiki Chatterjee
This chapter has targeted the features of inorganic cage compounds, their classification, and their overabundant applications. The term ‘Cage’ is utilized as a specific term for three-dimensional structures which have a definite and rigid geometry. There can be various atomic positions in the cage, these positions can operate as branching origins and additional ligands can be introduced at these positions. Recent advances in the synthetic chemistry and strategies adopted for the synthesis of cage compounds with special attention to Calixarenes and Cryptophanes have played an analytical role in the development of Biomedical Applications, drug freightage systems, sensing, bio-imaging, and other smart materials. The adsorption of dye from industrial wastewater by the functionalized Calixarene cage e.g. Dinitro Calix [4] arene cage (DNCC) was tested for the first time [1]. Recent research indicates that Cryptophane cages can also adopt different configurations and demonstrate various applications [2]. During the 1970s, a founding work by Corbett and Simon on rare-earth halides led to the establishment of the fact that these highly cluster skeleton electron-deficient clusters always involve an interstitial atom inside the metal cluster cage. A novel development in the field of coordination chemistry of integral cage molecules and their ligand complexes has been extensively researched for their budding application as building blocks in polymers [3]. Caged structure complexes, one of its kind in supramolecular chemistry have always garnered the attention of the scientific community worldwide. This book chapter is an initiative to instill the essence of the caged compound with its striking features and a plethora of applications.
