Crystal tuning: Organic molecules can be xenophobic, preferring to crystallize with their own kind. Though useful for purification, this precludes the tuning of crystal properties by doping or mixing. Nanoporous steroids provide an exception, as their channels can accept a variety of termini (hexagons and spheres). The steroids can be cocrystallized in any ratio to give a wide range of chiral, potentially porous crystalline materials.
