Organozinc addition reactions were carried out on an aldehyde within a porous coordination network (see picture) in a single-crystal-to-single-crystal fashion, and the product structure was unambiguously determined by X-ray diffraction. Moreover, a one-pot two-step reaction in a single crystal furnished an ester from an aldehyde without the network losing crystallinity.
