Ao ne-dimensional nanotubularm etal-organic framework (MOF) [Ni(Cu-H 4 TPPA)]•2 (CH 3) 2 NH 2 + (H 8 TPPA = 5,10,15,20-tetrakis[p-phenylphosphonic acid] porphyrin) constructed by using the arylphosphonic acid H 8 TPPAi s reported. The structure of this MOF,k nown as GTUB-4, was solved by using single-crystal X-ray diffractiona nd its geometrica ccessible surfacea rea was calculated to be 1102 m 2 g À1 ,m aking it the phosphonate MOF with the highest reporteds urface area. Due to the extended conjugation of its porphyrin core, GTUB-4 possesses narrow indirect and direct bandgaps (1.9 eV and 2.16 eV,r espectively) in the semiconductor regime. Thermogravimetric analysis suggests that GTUB-4 is thermally stable up to 400 8C. Owing to its high surface area, low bandgap, and high thermal stability, GTUB-4 could find applications as electrodes in supercapacitors. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are microporous materials that contain well-defined micropores composed of organic and inorganic surfaces. [1-9] They have been used in applications ranging from gas adsorption, sequestration of greenhouse gases, [10, 11] catalysis, [12, 13] magnetism, [14-17] drug delivery, [18, 19] [c] K.
