High CO2 Uptake Capacity and Selectivity in a Fascinating Nanotube-Based Metal Organic Framework

An unusual porous metal organic framework has been synthesized by using Pb(II) and rigid V-shaped 4,4'-(pyridine-3,5-diyOdiisophthalic acid (H4L). Structure analysis reveals that there exist 1D cylindrical 14.26 A and triangular prism 10.69 X 10.69 X 10.69 angstrom(3) nanotubes in the framework. Gas sorption behavior of the nanoporous MOF shows a relatively high capacity and selectivity of CO2 over CH4.
