Application RelevanceSupport assessment: High
The pristine Cu3(C6O6)2 MOF device detects NH3, H2S and NO at ppb-level theoretical LODs with distinct response signs and kinetics.
Caveat: NH3 LOD differs between main article (14 ppb) and SI Figure S6 (8.3 ppb); both are extracted.

Structure Property LinkSupport assessment: High
Cu3(C6O6)2 shows gas-identity-dependent electrical conductance and magnetic modulation for NH3, H2S and NO.
Caveat: Magnetic modulation is subtle exchange-coupling modulation rather than on/off spin switching.

Transport MechanismSupport assessment: High
H2S binds through S to Cu, reduces Cu(II) to Cu(I), forms sulfide/polysulfide/CuSH species and partly disrupts the conjugated framework, reducing conductivity and reversibility.
Caveat: pXRD suggests bulk crystallinity largely remains, so authors infer surface/minor-fraction change.

Transport MechanismSupport assessment: High
NH3 response is attributed to dehydration, H-bonding and coordination to Cu, causing a resistance increase with good reversibility.
Caveat: Exact molecules in the MOF channel were not definitively assigned by MicroED.
8 · Conclusions · Linked to 5 structured results
Transport MechanismSupport assessment: Medium
NO likely undergoes ligand-centred radical interaction with the C6O6 ligand, shifting electron density and increasing conductivity.
Caveat: Mechanism is inferred from spectroscopy rather than direct structure of a NO adduct.
