The pivotal role of π⋯π interactions in the inclusion behaviour of a series of organometallic sandwich compounds is studied through single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The confinement effects of a crystalline sponge host are investigated where, notably, we observe an enhanced rotation of the ligand ring once encapsulated by the nanoporous framework, as evidenced by SSNMR experiments.
