The unbalanced MOF-on-MOF growth of MIL-88A on the MIL-88B template, where both MOFs have a similar three-dimensional hexagonal structure but with mismatched cell parameters, results in the formation of an atypical lopsided core–shell of MIL-88B@MIL-88A with an off-centered core. The formation mechanism of the lopsided core–shell of MIL-88B@MIL-88A is verified via monitoring the growth process.
