Water cages : A water framework consisting of uniform space‐filling polyhedral cages containing tetrahydrofuran molecules has been detected in a new clathrate hydrate formed under a pressure of 0.8 GPa. Topologically the cage represents a space‐filling tetradecahedron with four tetra‐, four penta‐, and six hexagonal faces (see picture).
