A team from the Instituto de Ciencia Molecular (ICMol) at the Universitat de València has developed a new synthetic strategy to design porous materials capable of modifying their structure in a controlled manner in response to environmental molecules. The development originates from the ERC LIVINGPORE project, led by Carlos Martí-Gastaldo, head of the group and professor in the Department of Inorganic Chemistry at the UV, and proposes a modular platform based on synthetic amino acids that combines chemical stability with adaptive capacity, two properties that are difficult to integrate in this type of material.
