Rigid pillars and double walls in a porous metal-organic framework: single-crystal to single-crystal, controlled uptake and release of iodine and electrical conductivity.
A highly stable pillared and double-walled zinc(II) metal-organic framework with regular nanochannels displays single-crystal to single-crystal transformation upon desolvation and a large quantity of iodine uptake, controlled release, and electrical conductivity elevation due to synergy between the iodine guests and the host framework.
