The chemical vapor deposition polymerization of metalloporphyrin building units provides an easily up-scalable one-step method toward the deposition of a new class of dense and defect-free metal–organic covalent network (MOCN) layers. The resulting hyper-thin and flexible MOCN layers, supported on poly[1-(trimethylsilyl)-1-propyne], exhibit outstanding gas-separation performances for multiple gas pairs, as described on page 7479 by K. K. Gleason and co-workers.
