title: Flexibility of ZIF-8 materials studied using 129Xe NMR.
abstract: Structural changes in a porous hybrid inorganic-organic ZIF-8 compound have been explored using hyperpolarized (129)Xe NMR of adsorbed xenon at various temperatures. Upon xenon adsorption at low temperature, the organic linkers undergo a reorientation leading to a stepwise increase in xenon adsorption and in chemical shift.
