Adjusting adsorption selectivity and separation in photochromic metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) just by external stimuli is highly important but still rare. In their Communication (http://doi.org/10.1002/anie.201702484), F. Luo, G.-C. Guo, and co-workers employ a photochromic diarylethene unit as a light-triggered selectivity and separation regulator, leading to ultrahigh adsorption selectivity and improvement in adsorption selectivity, for example for C2H2/C2H4.
