<abstract xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">Biphenyl-4,4′-dicarboxylic acid (H2BDA) was used as an organic linker to synthesize bismuth and lead based organic frameworks (1 and 2). The structural/morphological studies of these metal organic frameworks (MOFs) were done using UV-Vis, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), 1H NMR, energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDXS), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and powder X-ray diffraction method. Surface area as determined by Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) studies revealed better N2 gas adsorption for MOF (1) compared to MOF (2). Both these MOFs exhibited good luminescence activity which was attributed to ligand-to-metal charge transfer transitions (LMCT).</abstract>
