Abstract:Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) are an emerging class of two-dimensional (2D) or three-dimensional (3D) porous structures. Most COFs are typically prepared via solvothermal methods involving long reaction times (>12 h) that generally result in unprocessable powders, significantly hindering their straightforward integration into devices and applications. Current processing methods for 2D COFs have not been implemented for 3D COFs, probably due to the lack of preassembly mechanisms among the 3D COF precursors… Show more
“…Compared to the highest yielding reaction conditions reported for the batch synthesis of 2D COF single crystals the flow synthesis approach offers a 2–3-fold increase in framework production rate and similar to the recent reports of 3D COF synthesis in microfluidic systems. 5,31 PXRD confirmed the high crystallinity of the yellow CF-TAPB-DMPDA COF with a sharp diffraction at 2.78 2 θ degree angles corresponding to the (100) facet of a primitive hexagonal lattice (Fig. 3b and S22†).…”

“…Conjugated 3D COFs remain scarce primarily because of the exacting synthesis conditions required for their direct construction from building blocks. The lack of efficient preassembly mechanisms among 3D COF precursors during synthesis likely hinders the development of a streamlined process specifically designed for the synthesis and processing of 3D COFs. − …”
