However, this field is still in its infancy, a reason why several new basic studies that allow us control over it are highly required. Herein we report the synthesis of [Co(CH3COO)2(μ-4,4′-bpy)] in femtolitre droplets on surfaces and the results are compared with those obtained for the same reaction at different volume scales. ; M.
