Abstract
Far from being simply rigid, benign architectures, metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) exhibit diverse interactions with their interior environment. From developing crystal sponges to studying reactions in framework materials, the role of both supramolecular chemistry and framework structure is evident. We explore the role of supramolecular chemistry in determining framework…guest interactions and attempts to understand the dynamic behavior in MOFs, including attempts to control pore behavior through the incorporation of mechanically‐interlocked molecules. Appreciating and understanding the role of supramolecular interactions and dynamic behavior in metal–organic frameworks emerge as important directions for the field.
