The well‐known and excellent colorimetric sensing capacity of porphyrins, along with the exceptional structural properties of metal–organic frameworks (MOFs), make porphyrin‐based MOFs, such as PCN‐222, ideal candidates for the construction of a chemical sensor based on absorbance. However, to the best of authors’ knowledge, no high‐quality porphyrin‐based MOF gas sensors have been developed to date, most likely due to the difficulties in: 1) preparing nanosized porphyrin‐MOFs to minimize scattering in absorbance measurements; and 2) incorporating MOFs into transparent membranes for practical use. Herein, a simple and fast microwave‐assisted method for preparing high‐quality nanosized PCN‐222 crystals and their metalated derivatives PCN‐222(M) is reported to finely tune the sensing response. Next, the successful dispersion of these PCN‐222(M) nanoparticles into poly(dimethylsiloxane) to create flexible and transparent membranes is demonstrated. This integration yields a multiresponsive optical gas sensor exhibiting excellent sensitivity and the ability to discriminate between various volatile organic compounds via pattern recognition identification.
