Two additive-induced isomeric aluminoborates, (CH(3)NH(3))(2)(H(2)O)(2)[Al(B(5)O(10))] (1) and (CH(3)NH(3))(H(2)O)[Al(B(5)O(10))] (2), have been obtained by using small methylamine molecules as structure directing agents (SDA) under solvothermal conditions and characterized by elemental analysis, IR, TGA, powder X-ray diffraction, single-crystal X-ray diffraction, NLO determination, UV-vis spectral investigation, electronic structure calculation and ion exchange. Different arrangements of B(5)O(10) units and AlO(4) tetrahedra results in two different structures with two pairs of helical channels along [100] and [010] directions, respectively. Interestingly, the two frameworks with noncentrosymmetric and chiral space groups separately exhibit the same diamond topologies and display good second harmonic generation efficiencies of about 2.0 times the value of KDP.

Although supramolecular isomerism in metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) would offer a favorable platform for in-depth exploring their structure-property relationship, the design and synthesis of the isomers are still rather a challenging aspect of crystal engineering. Here, a pair of supramolecular isomers of Co(II)-based MOFs (FJU-88 and FJU-89) can be directionally fabricated by rational tuning the additives. In spite of the fact that the isomers have the similar Co secondary building units and organic linkers, they adopt distinct networks with acs and snw topologies, respectively, which derive from the conformational flexibility of the organic ligands.

Grinding them down: By using a tailor-made additive, even in the absence of racemization in solution, abrasive grinding can yield an enantiopure solid state. This novel chiral resolution technique is based on an asymmetric bifurcation in the crystal size distribution as a result of stereoselective hampered crystal growth. R = o-tolyl.
