TL;DR: This critical review highlights supermolecular building blocks (SBBs) in the context of their impact upon the design, synthesis, and structure of metal-organic materials (MOMs) by highlighting how the large size and high symmetry of such SBBs can afford improved control over the topology of the resulting MOM and a new level of scale to the resulting framework.

TL;DR: Five sorbents investigated for their ability to adsorb CO2 directly from air and other gas mixtures were found to be capable of carbon capture from CO2-rich gas mixture, but competition and reaction with atmospheric moisture significantly reduced their DAC performance.

TL;DR: In this article, two hybrid ultramicroporous materials (HUMs), known as SIFSIX-3-Ni and TIFS6-2-Cu-i, were proposed to remove CO 2 impurities from C 2 H 2 -containing gas mixtures.

TL;DR: Qc-5-Cu-sql-β, a narrow pore polymorph of the square lattice (sql) coordination network Qc- 5- Cu- SQL-α, adsorbs CO2 while excluding both CH4 and N2 and is stable to moisture and its separation performance is unaffected by humidity.

TL;DR: A novel 3D metal−organic coordination polymer constructed from hollow, spherical, nanometer-sized molecular faceted polyhedra and a flexible tetracarboxylate ligand designed to simultaneously assemble and cross-link these nanoballs in situ has been synthesized and structurally characterized.
