The confinement effects within coordination cages present powerful tools in modern chemistry, particularly for the synthesis and manipulation of complex molecules. This concept article reviews the use of coordination cages to stabilize and tune the properties of polyoxometalates (POMs), a class of nano-sized metallic clusters, expanding the focus beyond traditional organic reactions. The article provides a brief overview of coordination cages, POM chemistry and discusses the encapsulation of POMs in coordination cages, highlighting how these cages provide a confinement effect that enhances the stability and reactivity of POMs.

- * Researchers used a technique involving sulfonate functionalized N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) Ir complexes and a special structural framework called a G-sphere to create these nanoclusters through hydrogen reduction.
- * The resulting nanoclusters (1.8 ± 0.4 nm) exhibited a narrow size distribution and were highly effective as catalysts for hydrogenating 4-nitrostyrene, showcasing superior selectivity compared to larger, non-encapsulated Ir clusters.
Article Synopsis
- Long-term effectiveness and safety of omalizumab for Chronic Inducible Urticaria (CIndU) were evaluated in a large cohort across 14 specialized centers, revealing it to be highly effective for most patients.
- Out of 234 patients, 73% reported significant improvements while the median treatment duration exceeded 5 years, mainly due to disease control.
- Patient age was a predictor of treatment continuation, with older patients less likely to discontinue due to well-controlled disease, and CIndU subtype did not impact treatment response or duration.
