🏆 Celebrating the 2025 #NobelPrize in Chemistry 🏆   To mark this year’s Nobel Prize, we’re proud to share a special cross-journal collection featuring research published across Royal Society of Chemistry journals in areas connected to the award-winning discoveries.   This year’s Nobel Prize in Chemistry was awarded to Susumu Kitagawa (Kyoto University, Japan), Richard Robson (University of Melbourne, Australia), and Omar M. Yaghi (University of California, Berkeley, USA) for pioneering the development of metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) a revolutionary class of materials with large internal spaces that allow gases and chemicals to flow through them.   Their work has inspired the creation of tens of thousands of MOFs, with applications tackling global challenges from carbon capture to PFAS removal.   This collection showcases recent research published across 19 RSC journals relating to metal–organic frameworks and includes studies on electrical conductivity, photocatalysis, gas capture and storage, water remediation, biomedical applications, and AI-driven synthesis, demonstrating the widespread influence of this year’s highlighted research.   🔗 Explore the collection here, free to read until the end of November: https://lnkd.in/eSJ6QMuC   We hope this curated selection of articles not only celebrates the achievements of the 2025 laureates but also serves as a resource and inspiration for the global scientific community.

🎉 Celebrating the 2025 Nobel Prize in Chemistry! 🧪 Huge congratulations to Susumu Kitagawa, Richard Robson, and Omar M. Yaghi – awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry 2025 for their pioneering work developing metal–organic frameworks (MOFs)! 🌍✨ 📘 If you're inspired by their work, explore the Royal Society of Chemistry’s definitive volume: Flexible Metal–Organic Frameworks: Structural Design, Synthesis and Properties, edited by Susumu Kitagawa himself. This book offers a deep dive into the dynamic world of flexible MOFs — from design principles to real-world applications — and is a must-read for anyone working in materials science, chemistry, or sustainability. 🔗 https://lnkd.in/evDzeR-m #NobelPrize #MOFs #Chemistry #MaterialsScience #RSCBooks #FlexibleMOFs #ScientificPublishing

BREAKING NEWS The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences has decided to award the 2025 Nobel Prize in Chemistry to Susumu Kitagawa, Richard Robson and Omar M. Yaghi “for the development of metal–organic frameworks.”   The 2025 Nobel Prize laureates in chemistry have created molecular constructions with large spaces through which gases and other chemicals can flow. These constructions, metal–organic frameworks, can be used to harvest water from desert air, capture carbon dioxide, store toxic gases or catalyse chemical reactions.   Kitagawa, Robson and Yaghi have developed a new form of molecular architecture. In their constructions, metal ions function as corner-stones that are linked by long organic (carbon-based) molecules. Together, the metal ions and molecules are organised to form crystals that contain large cavities. These porous materials are called metal–organic frameworks (MOF). By varying the building blocks used in the MOFs, chemists can design them to capture and store specific substances. MOFs can also drive chemical reactions or conduct electricity.   “Metal–organic frameworks have enormous potential, bringing previously unforeseen opportunities for custom-made materials with new functions,” says Heiner Linke, Chair of the Nobel Committee for Chemistry.
