Crystallographic investigation into the self-assembly, guest binding, and flexibility of urea functionalised metal-organic frameworks [PDF]
Introduction of hydrogen bond functionality into metal-organic frameworks can enhance guest binding and activation, but a combination of linker flexibility and interligand hydrogen bonding often results in the generation of unwanted structures where the ...
