ResearchPorous organic ‘cage of cages’ crystalline structure predicted by computational modelling
Organic cages have been used as precursors to synthesise higher order porous structures, adding to their functionality while the ability to solution process them is retained.

ResearchCrystalline cages create unusual ‘touchless’ sensors
Researchers connect chemistry and engineering to create touch-free buttons based on the detection of the skin’s water
-
ResearchPorphyrin assembly is ‘largest pure organic synthetic cage’ ever made
Hollow structures could find use in light harvesting or cargo-trafficking systems
-
ResearchMolecular cages give amides a twist to increase reactivity up to 14 times
Squeezing amides into twisted conformation inside nanosized cages makes them easier to hydrolyse
