Design, synthesis, and application of covalent organic frameworks as catalysts

Abstract

A category of new polymers with well-defined porous and crystalline properties that consists of light-weight elements is covalent organic frameworks (COFs). Strong covalent linkages connect these elements. Because of these...

Research Progress on the Application of Covalent Organic Framework Nanozymes in Analytical Chemistry

“…In addition to monomers, the morphology of COF nanozymes also depends on the synthesis method and conditions [65]. So far, the main synthesis methods of unloaded COF nanozymes are solvothermal synthesis and microwave-assisted synthesis [66,67].…”

“…Based on the solvothermal synthesis method, researchers have conducted a lot of work on the performance of COF nanozymes [68,69]. Solvothermal synthesis is widely used and is conducive to the large-scale preparation of COF nanozymes [65].…”

Expanding the horizons of covalent organic frameworks: sub-stoichiometric synthesis as an emerging toolkit for functional COFs

“…49–52 The field has also witnessed the utilization of unreacted sites, the introduction of non-interfering functional groups, and post-synthetic modifications that functionalize the pores or transform the linkages. 30,33,53 The functional versatility of such framework materials has led to various applications, including gas adsorption/separation, 54–57 host–guest chemistry, 58–61 sensing, 62–68 ion capture/transport, 69 catalysis, 70–76 and electrochemical applications. 77…”
