Abstract: Reversible structural rearrangements ("breathing") of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are interesting and complex phenomena with many potential applications. They are often triggered by small amounts of adsorbed guest molecules; therefore, the guest-host interactions in breathing MOFs are intensively investigated. Due to the sensitivity limitations, most analytical methods require relatively high concentrations of guests in these studies. However, because guest molecules are not "innocent", breathing behavior may become suppressed and unperturbed structural states inaccessible. We propose here the use of guest nitroxide molecules in tiny concentrations (such as 1 molecule per 1000 unit cells), which serve as spin probes for electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR), for effective study of breathing phenomena in MOFs. Using a perspective MIL-53(Al) framework as an example, we demonstrate the great advantage of this general approach, which avoids perturbation of the framework structure and allows in-depth investigation of guest-host interactions in the breathing mode.
