SOM Catalysis . A soft oxometalate (SOM) with controlled size and a hollow nanocavity is exploited for the photochemical synthesis of polymeric nanospheres within its nanocavity. Koushik Das and Soumyajit Roy report in their Full Paper on page 1884 that such SOM based vesicles of varying size can be used as a template and a heterogeneous catalyst for synthesizing polymeric spheres of controlled size. The study explores the possibility of surfactant and initiator‐free photochemical synthetic routes for obtaining controlled size and uniform latex spheres.
