A new class of narrowly dispersed nanosize hexagonal MOF rods from Mn(III)-porphyrin and In(III) was obtained. The length of MOF rods was controlled by simple change of reaction times. Furthermore, the oxidation of styrene has been successfully demonstrated with Mn(III)-porphyrin MOF rods and their reusability has been also tested.

To simply reduce HAuCl(4) using 2-thiophenemethanol in an aqueous solution at room temperature, a novel metallic Au nanostructure with a high SERS activity was obtained. Flat sheet-like Au nanoleaves possessing many nanogap hotspots bound with a large percentage of high-index facets were obtained.
