Responsive sensing clusters : By linking {(Mo)Mo 5 } type building units with different spacers, spherical clusters (nanosponges) having 20 different nanosized and tunable Mo n O m pores/macrocycles of the type and quality of the classical crown ethers of supramolecular chemistry are formed (see picture of an {Mo 9 O 9 }‐type host with guanidinium ion [(NH 2 ) 3 C] + guests; Mo blue, O red, N green, C black). This property allows the development of a novel spherical‐surface and nanoporous‐cluster chemistry with the possibility of the formation of extended cluster networks (solid‐state structures), as well a modeling of cell responses to extracellular signal molecules.
