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

The growing importance of crystalline molecular flasks and the crystalline sponge method
TL;DR: The crystalline sponge method's primary application has been determination of absolute configuration, and this has evolved from the analysis of carefully chosen planar aromatic guests to more diverse identification of natural products, biological metabolites, and analysis of volatile chemical components.

First evidence of thermo- and two-step photochromism of tris-anils
Damir A. Safin,Yann Garcia +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the origin of the observed photochromism is due to a cis/trans-keto isomerization of tris-anil triamines with the common formula N(CH2CH2NCH-aryl).
