Crystal engineering: molecular networks based on inclusion phenomena

Abstract

Inclusion processes based on molecular recognition processes may be used as a design principle for the generation of molecular networks in the solid state. Hollow tuneable molecular modules (koilands) based on fusion of preorganised cavities were shown to be assembled in the solid state into one-dimensional molecular arrays (koilates) either by self-inclusion or by interconnection using connector molecules. The formation of the molecular networks in the crystalline phase was established by X-ray studies.
