In this Minireview, we discuss the fundamental chemistry of soft porous crystals (SPCs) by characterizing their common structural features and the resulting structural softness and transitions. In particular, we focus on the recently emerging properties based on metastable transitions and those arising from local dynamics. By comparing the resulting adsorption properties to those of commonly applied rigid adsorbents, we highlight the potential of SPCs to revolutionize adsorption-based technologies, considering our current understanding of the thermodynamic and kinetic aspects. We provide brief outlines for the experimental and computational characterization of such phenomena and offer an outlook toward next-generation SPCs likely to be discovered in the next decade.
在本综述中,我们通过表征软多孔晶体(SPCs)的常见结构特征以及由此产生的结构柔软性和转变来讨论其基础化学。特别地,我们关注基于亚稳转变的最新出现的性质以及那些源于局部动力学的性质。通过将所得的吸附性质与常用刚性吸附剂的吸附性质进行比较,考虑到我们目前对热力学和动力学方面的理解,我们强调了SPCs在革新基于吸附的技术方面的潜力。我们提供了此类现象的实验和计算表征的简要概述,并对未来十年可能发现的下一代SPCs进行了展望。
