Abstract

<jats:p> The long-standing dream of scientists to be able to link molecules together into crystalline, extended (infinite) 2D and 3D structures is now realized by the establishment of reticular chemistry through the discovery and development of metal-organic frameworks and covalent organic frameworks. The architectural, thermal, and chemical stability of such frameworks allowed study of their ultra-high porosity, reactivity and many applications including carbon capture and conversion to fuels, and water harvesting from desert air. </jats:p>
