Prenucleation clusters : In situ synchrotron X‐ray scattering with a one‐second time resolution revealed the occurrence of nano‐sized clusters during the nucleation and early growth of nanocrystals of a zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF). The complex crystallization process exhibits similarities with crystallization processes of zeolites from solution. Hmim= 2‐methylimidazole.
