Bond breaking is an essential process in chemical transformations and the ability of
researchers to strategically dictate which bonds in a given system will be broken translates …

Crystal engineering of metal− organic frameworks (MOFs) has allowed the construction of
complex structures at atomic precision, but has yet to reach the same level of sophistication …

Solid‐state transformations in metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) are important and have led
to the creation of new MOF structures. Solid‐state transformations from interpenetrated to …

A major impediment when planning reactions in the organic solid state [1, 2] is unpredictable
structure effects of crystal packing. For bimolecular reactions, reactive centers must …

Isoreticular chemistry, in which the organic or inorganic moieties of reticular materials can be
replaced without destroying their underlying nets, is a key concept for synthesizing new …

The idea of modularity in organic total synthesis has promoted the construction of diverse
targeted natural products by varying the building blocks and assembly sequences. Yet its …

At its core, reticular chemistry has translated the precision and expertise of organic and
inorganic synthesis to the solid state. While initial excitement over metal–organic …

Topological transitions between considerably different phases typically require harsh
conditions to collectively break chemical bonds and overcome the stress caused to the …

Versatility in metal substitution is one of the key aspects of metal‐organic framework (MOF)
chemistry, allowing properties to be tuned in a rational way. As a result, it important to …

One of the challenges in the area of materials sciences is to develop reliable strategies that
allow for the manipulation of physical and chemical properties of a given material in a …
