TLDR
The principles, development and applications of crystalline molecular flasks, solid-state crystalline networks with pores within which pseudo-solution-state reactions can take place, are described.Abstract:
Crystalline networks containing empty cavities can host a variety of molecules but also promote reactions between guests. Through robust crystallinity and a pseudo-solution state (dynamic movements) within their pores, these crystalline molecular flasks enable the direct observation of species — including unstable intermediates — during a reaction by in situ X-ray diffraction.read more

In Situ Observation of Thiol Michael Addition to a Reversible Covalent Drug in a Crystalline Sponge.
TL;DR: The crystallographic observation of reversible Michael addition with a potent cyanoenone drug candidate by means of the crystalline-sponge method is reported and confirmed the single-crystal-to-single-Crystal transformation of the substrate into the impermanent Michael adduct.

Recent advances of application of porous molecular cages for enantioselective recognition and separation.
TL;DR: This review mainly focuses on the recent advance of application of porous molecular cages (porous organic cages and metal-organic cages) for enantioselective recognition and separation from 2010 to present, including gas chromatography, capillary electrochromatography, chiral fluorescent recognition, chirl fluorescent recognition and chiral potentiometric sensing.

Influencing the size and anion selectivity of dimeric Ln(3+)[15-metallacrown-5] compartments through systematic variation of the host side chains and central metal.
TL;DR: Electrospray ionization mass spectrometry reveals that the dimerization phenomenon occurs beyond the solid state, suggesting that these containers can be utilized in solid-state and solution applications.

Supramolecular photochemistry concepts highlighted with select examples
TL;DR: Supramolecular photochemistry (SP) as mentioned in this paper deals with a study of the properties of molecules in their excited states where the medium plays a significant role and the behavior of exited molecules in SP unlike in isotropic solution is controlled not only by their inherent electronic and steric properties but also by the immediate surroundings.
