The hydrothermal/solvothermal method is one of the most versatile synthetic routes for producing a large number of compounds. The thermodynamic aspects, the control of morphology and the crystallisation mechanisms are reviewed and discussed in this highlight, with special emphasis on the synthesis of SrTiO3, as a model system.

Recently, a novel modular approach to octatriazole-derived phthalocyanines (Pcs; 1) was developed and optimized in our group; herein, the pool of the functional Pc materials was expanded for an additional candidate (2), a fused derivative of 1. Compared with 1, the aromaticity in 2 is extended by an additional four benzene and eight triazole rings and, in addition, the triazole units and the Pc core co-create four functional, in-plane cavities. Various methods to link the unsubstituted carbon atoms of the neighboring triazoles in 1 to afford atomically flat naphthalocyanine (Nc) analogs (2), containing eight fused triazole moieties, were studied. Several synthetic routes were designed, among them the trisubstituted-triazole approach, which was found to be the most suitable route. The crucial steps of this approach, the copper-catalyzed azide-haloalkyne cycloaddition and the intramolecular homocoupling reactions, were first studied on a model system; subsequently, this methodology was applied in the synthesis of the desired Nc 2. The increased core size and the π-electron deficient structure predict this class of Ncs to possess very strong aggregation properties. Moreover, owing to the presence of four tridentate half-cavities, the final properties of the molecule or the assembly can, in principle, be further tuned by doping with metals or guest molecules.

The energetic barrier for the cis-to-trans isomerization of azobenzene was experimentally investigated by using thin films of azobenzene-containing MOFs as well-defined model system.

Apart from the more familiar π-conjugation, there is also significant π–π repulsion which is a kind of unrecognized intramolecular strain and can be quantified with the linear B4H2 model system.
