Significance

The author reports on a complete and reversible inversion of supramolecular chirality that results in a large amplitude molecular rearrangement. The diastereomer P-2 is energeti­cally stabilized with respect to M-2 and can be reversibly converted into the pseudoenantiomer [M-2*M2]4+ by addition of metal ions (M²+).
