Abstract:
Herein, we report the advanced-concept triple-functionality of a metal-organic nanotube (MONT), which acts as a reservoir for unstable reactants, a photoreaction platform, and a scavenger for byproduct iodine. Self-assembly of CdI2 with a new Y-type ligand (L) produces the substantial 1D MOF, [CdI2(L)], thus forming a thick nanotube with a 1.4 nm diameter.
