Abstract
Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) have been designed and successfully synthesized by condensation reactions of phenyl diboronic acid {C6H4[B(OH)2]2} and hexahydroxytriphenylene [C18H6(OH)6]. Powder x-ray diffraction studies of the highly crystalline products (C3H2BO)6.(C9H12)1 (COF-1) and C9H4BO2 (COF-5) revealed expanded porous graphitic layers that are either staggered (COF-1, P6(3)/mmc) or eclipsed (COF-5, P6/mmm). Their crystal structures are entirely held by strong bonds between B, C, and O atoms to form rigid porous architectures with pore sizes ranging from 7 to 27 angstroms. COF-1 and COF-5 exhibit high thermal stability (to temperatures up to 500 degrees to 600 degrees C), permanent porosity, and high surface areas (711 and 1590 square meters per gram, respectively).

Designed Synthesis of a 2D Porphyrin-Based sp 2 Carbon-Conjugated Covalent Organic Framework for Heterogeneous Photocatalysis.

TL;DR: Por-sp2 c-COF, a novel two-dimensional porphyrin-based sp2 carbon-conjugated COF, which adopts an eclipsed AA stacking structure with a Brunauer-Emmett-Teller surface area shows a high chemical stability under various conditions and can be used as a metal-free heterogeneous photocatalyst for the visible-light-induced aerobic oxidation of amines to imines.

Porous organic molecules

TL;DR: This Perspective discusses recent developments with discrete organic molecules that are porous in the solid state and focuses on the possible advantages of organic molecules over inorganic or hybrid systems in terms of molecular solubility, choice of components and functionalities, and structural mobility and responsiveness in non-covalent extended solids.

Covalent Organic Framework–Covalent Organic Framework Bilayer Membranes for Highly Selective Gas Separation

TL;DR: A new type of a two-dimensional layered-stacking COF-COF composite membrane in bilayer geometry synthesized on a porous support by successively regulating the growth of imine-based COf-LZU1 and azine- based ACOF-1 layers via a temperature-swing solvothermal approach is demonstrated.

Modular and predictable assembly of porous organic molecular crystals

TL;DR: It is shown that highly porous crystalline solids can be produced by mixing different organic cage modules that self-assemble by means of chiral recognition and can in principle be generalized in a computationally predictable manner based on a lock-and-key assembly between modules.

An ordered mesoporous organosilica hybrid material with a crystal-like wall structure.

TL;DR: The surfactant-mediated synthesis of an ordered benzene–silica hybrid material has an hexagonal array of mesopores and crystal-like pore walls that exhibit structural periodicity, and it is expected that other organosilicas and organo-metal oxides can be produced in a similar fashion, to yield a range of hierarchically ordered mesoporous solids with molecular-scale pore surface periodicity.
