“…However, only in the last decade, chemically robust and permanently porous MPF materials have been achieved. [1,2] The designability of their structures, tunability of pore sizes and modularity of properties by crystal engineering strategy [3,4] as well as their permanent porosity afford them great potential for applications in gas storage and separation, [5][6][7] heterogeneous catalysis, [8,9] magnetism, [10] biomedical applications [11,12] or sensing. [13] Tetratopic and pentatopic square planar building blocks based on tetraarylporphyrins, such as 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(4pyridyl)porphyrin (H 2 TPyP) [14] and 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(4carboxyphenyl)porphyrin (H 6 TCPP), [15] have been used extensively as ligands in the synthesis of different MPFs with the almost all metal ions within the periodic table.…”
