When you need to make a website on a budget, “free” is super appealing. That’s why a lot of small business owners and other people who need an online presence turn to free website builder services that don’t charge to host their site. Besides being free, these platforms are usually easy to use, which helps people who aren’t super-technical to make a simple site fast. All in all, it seems like a good deal. But free website builders can have downsides, too.

Design and synthesis of aryl-functionalized carbazole-based porous coordination cages A subset of coordination cages have garnered considerable recent attention for their potential permanent porosity in the solid state. Herein, we report a series of functionalized carbazole-based cages of the structure type M12(R-cdc)12 (M = Cr, Cu, Mo) where the functional groups include a range of aromatic substituents.

Novel syntheses of carbazole-3,6-dicarboxylate ligands and their utilization for porous coordination cages The molecular nature, and thus potential solubility, of coordination cages endows them with a number of advantages as compared to metal-organic frameworks and other extended network solids. However, their lack of three-dimensional connectivity typically limits their thermal stability as inter-cage interactions in these materials are relatively weak.
