title: Capsule-bowl conversion triggered by a guest reaction.
abstract: A new M20L8coordination capsule was synthesized. Owing to the structural flexibility and dynamic properties, the capsule showed wide scope for guest encapsulation. Furthermore, unique capsule-bowl conversion occurred upon a large guest encapsulation or a guest reaction.
