Metal-organic gels (MOGs) are attracting increasing attention for removal of organic dyes from aqueous solution and for catalysis of Si-H insertion reactions. Herein, we report that a reaction of porphyrin derivative 1 with Rh 2 (OAc) 4 generates stable metal-organic gels and subsequent subcritical carbon dioxide drying affords metal-organic aerogels. Owing to their micro- and mesoporosity, the aerogels adsorbed dyes. Moreover, aerogel I catalyzed Si-H insertion reactions to give organosilicon compounds in high yields.
