Abstract: Organic crystals as molecular storage materials are described in the Full Paper by C. Richert et al. on page 8781 ff. Tetrakis(dimethoxyphenyl)adamantane (TDA) forms a dazzling array of crystalline inclusion complexes, with guest molecules ranging from nitromethane to trifluorobenzene. Molecules thus stored can be released by recrystallizing from an alcohol or by solvate displacement. Hazardous materials and explosives may be captured, and mixtures may be separated. The picture illustrates the process of adding toxic solutions to TDA, which then crystallizes.
