We report herein a general synthetic approach for designing uranyl coordination cages. Compounds 1 and 2 are constructed through a temperature-dependent and solvent-driven self-assembly. In both cases, the synthetic strategy involves in situ phosphonate ligand condensation into a flexible pyrophosphonate
