Abstract: A method for separating a sulphur compound from a gas mixture. The method includes contacting a gas mixture with an adsorbent which includes a metal-organic framework (MOF) comprising a tridimensional succession of motifs having the formula: MmOkXlLp wherein, inter glia, M is a metal ion selected from the group consisting of Ti4+, V4+, Zr4+, Mn4+, Si4+, Al3+, Cr3+, V3+, Ga3+, In3+, Mn3+, Mn2+ and Mg2+, L is a spacer ligand including a radical having one or more carboxylate groups.

Abstract: The invention relates to solids made of a porous crystalline metal-organic framework (MOF) loaded with at least one gas of biological interest, and to a method for preparing the same. The MOF solids of the present invention are capable of adsorbing and releasing in a controlled manner gases having a biological interest. They can be used in the pharmaceutical field and/or for applications in the cosmetic field. They can also be used in the food industry.
