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

Synthesis of Chelating Complexes through Solid-State Dehydrochlorination Reactions via Second-Sphere-Coordination Interaction with Metal Chlorides: A Combined Experimental–Molecular Modeling Study
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors applied crystal engineering as a tool to study the solid-state transformation from molecular salts to coordination complexes via mechanochemical dehydrochlorination reactions, and showed that the chelating complexes resulting from the mechanochemical de-chlorination reaction depend on the formation of quasi-chelating hydrogen-bonding salts.

Suite of Organoplatinum(II) Triangular Metallaprism: Aggregation-Induced Emission and Coordination Sequence Induced Emission Tuning
TL;DR: These organoplatinum triangular metallaprisms with a kinetically inert Pt-N bond provide a good model to study the influence of building blocks and coordination sequence on the luminescence of supramolecules.

Cu12 and Cd16 coordination cages and their Cu3 and Cd3 subcomponents, and the role of inter-ligand π-stacking in stabilising cage complexes.
TL;DR: The bridging ligand L(14Nap), which contains two chelating pyrazolyl-pyridine units separated by a naphthalene-1,4-diyl spacer, has been used in self-assembly of polyhedral coordination cages, providing conclusive proof of the importance of inter-ligand π-stacking in the assembly of these cages.
