Selective binding and removal of organic molecules in a flexible polymeric material with stretchable metallosalen chains.
A dynamic porous coordination network with a hydrophobic channel was assembled from stretchable 1D metallosalen polymer, which has the ability to recognize and, particularly, separate aromatic hydrocarbons from aliphatic mixtures with high selectivity.
