Supramolecular macrocycles are well known as guest receptors in supramolecular
chemistry, especially host− guest chemistry. In addition to their wide applications in host …

Seemingly non-porous organic solids have the ability for guest transport and have also been
shown to absorb gases, including hydrogen, methane and acetylene, to varied extents …

The development of new strategies to construct on-demand porous lattice frameworks from
simple motifs is desirable. However, mitigating complexity while combing multiplicity and …

Reaction of β-amino-β-(pyrid-4-yl) acrylonitrile with the aromatic dicarboxaldehydes 9, 10-
bis (4-formylphenyl) anthracene and terephthalaldehyde affords the dihydropyridyl products …

Porous molecular materials combine benefits such as convenient processability and the
possibility for atom-precise structural fine-tuning which makes them remarkable candidates …

The study of porosity in the context of crystal engineering is rapidly growing in intensity.
However, claims of porosity are often highly subjective and use of the term “porous” is …

Within biological systems, natural channels and pores transport metabolites across the cell
membranes. Researchers have explored artificial ion-channel architectures as potential …

The inherent weak bonding nature of hydrogen-bonded organic frameworks (HOFs)
performs like a double-edged sword in that it endows HOFs with superiority in processability …

Going through the channels: Synthetic scaffolds mimicking natural protein functions have
been developed that allow water/proton or only water translocation pathways in bilayer …

The development of organic solids for applications in materials science requires a
fundamental understanding of how close packing of molecules can affect structure and …
