Abstract
We present our investigations on the stability of a cobalt thiocyanate-based metal–organic framework (MOF), coordinated by the 2,4,6-tris(4-pyridyl)-1,3,5-triazine (TPT) ligand, which is commonly employed for single-crystal-to-single-crystal guest inclusion. The selected crystalline solid, {[(Co(NCS) 2 ) 3 (TPT) 4 ]· x (solvent)} n, is one emerging MOF currently being utilized as a host for the crystalline sponge method. Our experimental results shed light on two critical structural transformations that should be considered when attempting the revolutionary crystalline sponge method. We demonstrate that when the crystalline sponge is removed from the solution, a remarkable color change from orange to green is observed, yielding a semiamorphous material. Diffuse reflectance and X-ray absorption spectroscopy studies were carried out on this resulting green compound in order to examine the nature of this transformation. Notably, our analyses indicate a change in the coordination environment of the Co II metal centers from octahedral to tetrahedral at the surface of the material. We further report a second structural transformation of the crystalline sponge, which arises from an increase in the local concentration of Co(NCS) 2 and leads to a significant change in the composition and structure of the material, giving a two-dimensional planar sheet network.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
