Featured article: MOF the beaten track: unusual structures and uncommon applications of metal–organic frameworks

Following extensive investigation into the porosity of metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) – which have proved themselves as a strong contender in the world of porous materials – the MOF community are now branching away from these heavily researched areas, and venturing into unexplored avenues. This review takes a sidestep away from increasingly ‘traditional’ approaches in the field, and details some of the more curious qualities of this relatively young family of materials.
