Want to be able to squeeze and contort dinuclear complexes and study the results by X-ray crystallography? Gimeno-Fonquernie et al. present a new Zr-based MOF that can do all of that and more. https://t.co/haAkNKqUcL

Very excited to see this piece of work published!!! Have a look at this new Zr-MOF that thanks to its unusual sqc topology allows for the isolation and crystallographic elucidation of squeezed and contorted dimeric complexes!!

Nanoconfinement in metal–organic framework (MOF) pores can lead to the isolation of unusual or reactive metal complexes. However, MOFs that support the stabilization and precise structural elucidat...
