“…30,68,74−93 The most porous of these so far are Mastalerz’s triptycene
benzimidazolone and analogues, 30,68 but multiple properties
have been studied in addition to surface area, such as fullerene capture, 76 uranium capture, 86 fluorocarbon capture, 94 ion absorption, 89 proton conduction, 78 thermoelasticity, 79 sensing, 81,84,87 enantioseparations, 91 CO 2 separation, 78,80,82,85,90,95 and hydrocarbon separation. 68,74,92 This is a rapidly developing
area, and solution processability is a potential advantage for HOFs
and SOFs, too. Based on these developments, intrinsically and extrinsically
porous molecules look set to be equally valid strategies for the future.…”
