Abstract
Independent one-, two-, and even three-dimensional nets interpenetrate each other in many solid-state structures of polymeric, hydrogen-bonded nets and coordination polymers. For example, the interpenetration of the adamantane units of two diamondlike nets is shown on the right. A detailed and systematic examination of many interpenetrating nets of this kind is made, and implications for crystal engineering are discussed.

Reticular synthesis and the design of new materials

TL;DR: This work has shown that highly porous frameworks held together by strong metal–oxygen–carbon bonds and with exceptionally large surface area and capacity for gas storage have been prepared and their pore metrics systematically varied and functionalized.

Modular chemistry: secondary building units as a basis for the design of highly porous and robust metal-organic carboxylate frameworks.

TL;DR: Consideration of the geometric and chemical attributes of the SBUs and linkers leads to prediction of the framework topology, and in turn to the design and synthesis of a new class of porous materials with robust structures and high porosity.

A chromium terephthalate-based solid with unusually large pore volumes and surface area.

TL;DR: This crystal structure for porous chromium terephthalate, MIL-101, with large poresizes and surface area has potential as a nanomold for monodisperse nanomaterials, as illustrated here by the incorporation of Keggin polyanions within the cages.
