Chinese scientists proposed a novel imine-to-olefin transformation strategy to synthesize single-crystal sp² carbon-linked covalent organic frameworks (sp²c-COFs). COFs are crystalline ...

A metal–organic framework (MOF)–pillar[5]arene hybrid can bind small molecules with long alkyl chains, such that single-crystal structures of the host–guest complexes can be obtained and ...

The single-crystal states were formed in controlled ... which could potentially lead to next-generation organic semiconductors. Furthermore, the researchers will focus on refining molecular ...
