The formation and decomposition of inclusion compounds with a solid-solid phase transition may be very selective to the guest molecular structure. This selectivity may function in essentially different ways than defined by the classical concept of molecular recognition, which implies the preferential binding of complementary molecules. Solid inclusion compounds may take part as an initial or/and final state in several processes of different types summarized in this review, which selectivity is boosted by cooperativity of participating molecular crystals. Some of these processes resemble switching electronic devices and can be called smart giving practically absolute molecular recognition.
具有固-固相变的包合物的形成和解离可能对客体分子结构具有高度选择性。这种选择性的作用方式可能与经典分子识别概念所定义的方式截然不同，经典分子识别概念意味着互补分子的优先结合。固体包合物可能在本综述总结的几种不同类型的过程中作为初始或/和最终状态参与其中，参与的分子晶体的协同作用增强了这种选择性。其中一些过程类似于开关电子器件，实际上可以称为具有近乎绝对分子识别能力的智能过程。
