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.

Safe P4 reagent in a reusable porous coordination network

TL;DR: P4 generated from red phosphorus via the gas phase was trapped into an interactive pore of a porous coordination network, shows weak interactions which stabilize the reactive P4 in a pore, and is reusable as a safe container of P4.

Visualization of Solution Chemistry by X-ray Crystallography Using Porous Coordination Networks

TL;DR: Porous coordination networks have two distinctive characteristics: robust coordination frameworks and fluid pores wherein molecules are mobile as discussed by the authors, and these characteristics allow solution chemistry to be solved in a robust manner.

Guest effects on crystal structure and phosphorescence of a Cu6L3 prismatic cage

TL;DR: In this article, the authors designed and prepared a phosphorescence Cu6L3 trigonal prismatic cage, which accommodates a series of aromatic guest molecules and observed the guest-induced photoluminescence properties change including a gradual red shift of the maximum emission peak and a linear relationship between the quantum yield and ionization potential of guests.
