Molecular tectonics: From simple tectons to complex molecular networks
Article Abstract:
Molecular tectonics, based on molecular recognition events and their iteration, is the approach dealing with design, and preparation of molecular networks in the solid state and an overview of the rational behind the approach is presented. A variety of molecular networks based on van der Waals interactions and hydrogen and coordination bonding possessing diverse connectivity and topology are discussed.

Structural evolution and phase homologies for "design" and prediction of solid-state compounds
Article Abstract:
The concept of using phase homologies to achieve "design" in solid-state chemistry based on a single series is discussed. The additional conceptual links between the existence of homologies and their implications for synthetic design in solid-state chemistry is presented.
