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.

Platinum(II)-Metallaclip-Based Theranostics for Cell Imaging and Synergetic Chemotherapy-Photodynamic Therapy.

TL;DR: In this paper , a PtII metallaclip (4) was prepared from 4-[4-(1,2,2-triphenylvinyl)phenyl]pyridine (1), 5,10,15-triphensyl-20-(pyridin-4-yl)porphyrin (2), 90o Pt, and glycol-chain-modified isophthalic acid (3) in an acetone/water mixture through the "coordination-driven self-assembly" method.

Self-assembly of supramolecular coordination complexes based on half-sandwich metal corner with tunable host cavities

TL;DR: In this article, two types of supramolecular coordination Ru(II) complexes, tetra-nuclear metallacycle (ring 2) and hexa-nuclear metallacage (cage 3), have been synthesized stepwise by the reactions of the dinuclear Ru-II complex with bidentate bridge ligand of 4,4′-dipyridy and tridentate bridged ligand 2,4,6-tris(pyridine-4-yl)-1,3,5-traizine (TP

Multicomponent Porphyrin-Based Tetragonal Prismatic Metallacages and their Photophysical Properties.

TL;DR: The preparation of three tetragonal prismatic cages via the self-assembly of Pt(PEt3)2(OTf)2, three different linear dipyridyl ligands and porphyrin-based sodium benzoate ligands showed their potential applications as contrast agents for bio-imaging and photosensitizers for photodynamic therapy.

Crystal structure of the inclusion compound of a porous metal-organic polymer with cymantrene

TL;DR: In this paper, the inclusion compound of the composition [Zn2(dmf)(bdc)(lac)]∙[Mn(C5H5)(CO)3] (C 5H5 = cyclopentadienyl) is obtained by keeping a mixture of crystals of a porous homochiral metalorganic polymer of the mixture.
