“…[8][9][10] Biomolecules such as enzymes that are created by nature, [11] can well discriminate enantiomers owing to their natural conformations composed of chiral subunits (that is,amino acids) as well as amphiphilic and zwitterionic features capable of providing specific interactions.T his makes them appealing for chiral separation particularly as chiral stationary phases (CSPs) in chromatography if they can be immobilized on some solidstate materials.H erein, we contribute ag eneral approach to immobilize biomolecules into an ew class of solid-state materials,c ovalent organic frameworks (COFs), and the afforded biomolecules&COFs can serve as versatile and highly efficient CSPs towards various racemates in both normal-phase and reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography.Emerging as an ew class of crystalline solid-state materials,COFs feature high surface area, low mass density,tunable pore size,high stability,and easily tailored functionality, [12][13][14] which means they hold promise for applications in many fields such as gas storage, [15] photoelectricity, [16] catalysis, [17][18][19] environmental remediation, [20] drug delivery, [21] and functional devices. [22] Thedevelopment of COFs for chiral separation is still in the infancy stage, [23][24][25] primarily relying on the construction of chiral COFs based on chiral monomers.O n the basis of our recent success in immobilizing enzymes into COFs, [26] in this work we present an alternative strategy to introduce chirality into COFs by covalently anchoring aseries of biomolecules,such as amino acids,peptides,and enzymes, onto the channel walls of achiral COFs to form biomolecu-les&COFs (Scheme 1). [27][28][29] We postulate that inheriting the strong chirality and specific interactions from the anchored biomolecules,t he resultant biomolecules&COFs are anticipated to demonstrate high efficiency for chiral separation;in addition, the protective environments provided by COFs [26] and the strong covalent bonding between the biomolecules and COF channel walls thus to prevent the denaturing and leaching of biomolecules make biomolecules&COFs ideal chiral stationary phases in both normal-phase and reversephase HPLC.…”
