A non-interpenetrating lead-organic framework with large channels based on 1D tube-shaped SBUs.

This work presents the construction of a porous lead-organic framework (UPC-10) with large channels of ∼24 Å. UPC-10 shows efficient adsorption of I2 and selective adsorption of some dyes containing the SO3− group. After the adsorption of dyes, UPC-10 exhibits a CO2 gas uptake ability. Furthermore, UPC-10 could be transformed into PbS in a H2S atmosphere, and the derived PbS manifests N2 and CO2 uptake abilities. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
