Metal–organic gels (MOGs) emerged as a novel class of functional soft materials in which
the scaffolding framework is fabricated by metal–ligand coordination in combination with …

In this Minireview, we discuss the fundamental chemistry of soft porous crystals (SPCs) by
characterizing their common structural features and the resulting structural softness and …

Computational modeling of physical processes in metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) is
highly challenging due to the presence of spatial heterogeneities and complex operating …

Since the late 1990s, much progress has been made in the field of the chemistry of flexible
porous coordination polymers (PCPs). Various PCP architectures have been recognized …

Recognising timescale as an adjustable dimension in porous solids provides a new
perspective to develop novel four-dimensional framework materials. The deliberate design …

Finding appropriate stimuli for controlling the breathing behavior of flexible metal–organic
frameworks (MOFs) is highly challenging. Herein, we report the solvent‐induced changes in …

Current research fields of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), which are being developed in
