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

Hypersensitive dual-function luminescence switching of a silver-chalcogenolate cluster-based metal–organic framework
Ren-Wu Huang,Yong-Sheng Wei,Xi-Yan Dong,Xiao-Hui Wu,Chenxia Du,Shuang-Quan Zang,Thomas C. W. Mak,Thomas C. W. Mak +7 more
TL;DR: The work enriches the cluster-based metal-organic framework portfolio, bridges the gap between silver chalcogenide/chalcogenolate clusters and metal- organic frameworks, and provides a foundation for further development of functional silver-cluster-based materials.
