“…[3] Also,u nlike covalent organic frameworks (COFs), POCs are crystallized without any bondforming reactions;h ence,w hile single-crystalline COFs are very rare, [4] it is relatively easy to grow high-quality singlecrystal POCs.P OCs have been explored in various applications such as sensing, [5] gas storage, [2] molecular separations (for example,x ylene isomers, [6] noble gases, [7] and chiral molecules [8] ), and proton conductivity. [9] As discrete,s oluble molecules,P OCs can be processed in organic solvents in aw ay that cannot be achieved with insoluble porous frameworks.F or example,m odular mix and match assembly strategies have been used to form binary and ternary cocrystals, [10] and cage crystals can be incorporated into polymers to form composite membranes. [11] Thef abrication of functional materials into thin films, membranes,a nd oriented crystals on substrates is of importance for applications in sensors,catalysts,electronic devices, and electrodes for fuel cells.…”
