1D coordination polymer + H-bonds + pi stacking = MOF as reported in @J_A_C_S by @zgroupUL and @brianbspace: https://t.co/uaM2NAX7Qa Congrats to @alan_eaby + co-authors for revealing how this understudied but potentially vast family of materials can serve as H2O and CO2 sorbents.

Cocrystal? Inclusion compound? Induced fit? @zgroupUL + @MACATAMO_Group report all of above in a non-porous organic solid that is highly selective for PX over other C8 isomers. Now in @J_A_C_S: https://t.co/uH6Iw6D0WL ๐Ÿฅ‚ @MaryamSangani + co-authors ๐Ÿ™@SSPCentre + @scienceirel

Iโ€™ve handled the review of > 1000 papers at @nature. Over time, you notice aspects of presentation on which reviewers tend to comment. In the interests of minimizing hassles during review, I offer the following suggestions (a bit targeted to climate papers).

A new porous organic crystal that reversibly absorbs water at temperatures as low as โˆ’70โ€‰ยฐC was reported by @Barbour_Group. CSD entry BIJLIT is a chromogenic crystal that changes from yellow to red upon water absorption. #FeaturedStructureFriday ๐Ÿ”— https://t.co/vsWMdMNCtv

The CELTIC2023 group photo proves we were here. Shortly thereafter, the bravest (by far) and coolest (by far, now literally) @ZGroupUL member took a dip in Galway Bay. Main take home message from CELTIC2023 is do not mess with Texas or @sbnbkv
