Synthesis of porphyrin-based two-dimensional metal–organic framework nanodisk with small size and few layers

Abstract

A novel porphyrin-based two-dimensional metal–organic framework (MOF) nanodisk with small size and few layers was prepared by coordination chelation between <italic>meso</italic>-tetra(4-carboxyphenyl)porphine ligand and Zn(<sc>ii</sc>) paddlewheel metal nodes.
