A series of selectively self-assembled metallo-supramolecular square-like macrocycles with unsymmetric ditopic linkers and two different types of metal corners, i.e., {Pd(eta(3)-2-Me-C3H4)} and {M(dppp)} with dppp = 1,3-bis(diphenylphosphino)propane and M = Pd2+ or Pt2+, have been studied in the gas phase using collision-induced dissociation. The aggregates show distinct fragmentation patterns determined by ligand length, i.e, aggregate size, and type of metal corner. Information on relative binding strength can be deduced. This is of particular interest for (methylallyl)Pd as a relatively new building block in metallo-supramolecular chemistry. The phosphane end of the unsymmetric ligand connected to (eta(3)-2-Me-C3H4)Pd is bound significantly stronger than its pyridine end to (dppp)Pt and (dppp)Pd. These results are corroborated by DFT calculations.
