Construction of Fully Conjugated Covalent Organic Frameworks via Facile Linkage Conversion for Efficient Photoenzymatic Catalysis

摘要

Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) with improved stability and extended π-conjugation structure are highly desirable. Here, two imine-linked COFs were converted into ultrastable and π-conjugated fused-aromatic thieno[3,2-c]pyridine-linked COFs (B-COF-2 and T-COF-2). The successful conversion was confirmed by infrared and solid-state ~(13)C NMR spectroscopies. Furthermore, the structures of thieno[3,2-c]pyridine-linked COFs were evaluated by TEM and PXRD. It is noted that a slight difference in the structure leads to totally different photoactivity. The fully π-conjugated T-COF-2 containing triazine as the core exhibited an excellent photocatalytic NADH regeneration yield of 74% in 10 min.
