TL;DR: In this article, the interfacial polymerization of polyfunctional amine and aldehyde monomers with a Lewis acid catalyst, Sc(OTf) 3, is described.

TL;DR: A review of 2D polymerization methods can be found in this paper, where the fundamental understanding and scope of each of these approaches are discussed, including: the bond-forming reactions used, the synthetic diversity of 2DPs prepared, their multilayer stacking behaviors, nanoscale and mesoscale structures, and macroscale morphologies.

TL;DR: By X-ray spectroscopy and calculations, Dianion [1](2-) shows both nucleophilic and electrophilic catalytic reactivity upon activation of O2 due to the presence of both a high-energy, filled O2(-) π* orbital and an empty low-lying O2⩽ orbital in [3](1-).

TL;DR: The synthesis of periodic two-dimensional polymers and characterization of their optoelectronic behaviors are challenges at the forefront of polymer chemistry and materials science and will motivate the development of colloidal COF systems as a platform to organize functional aromatic systems into precise and predictable assemblies with emergent properties.

TL;DR: In this paper, three imine-linked covalent organic framework (COF) films are incorporated as active layers into separate thin-film composite (TFC) membranes and tested for their ability to reject an organic pollutant surrogate and salt from water.
