多环芳烃(PAHs)在有机半导体或纳米碳领域中,无论是作为单个分子,还是作为构建单元,都占据着主导地位。通过sp2-碳桥连接多环芳烃形成高结晶π-扩展结构,不仅可以扩大二维材料的范围,而且可以实现特殊的性能/功能。作者开发了5,10-二甲基-4,9-二氮杂芘作为关键单体,其相邻氮原子的两个甲基可以帮助增加溶解度,并作为活性连接位点。在有机酸的存在下,该单体能够顺利地进行Knoevenagel缩合,形成两个乙烯连接的多环芳烃核心COFs,其显示出高结晶蜂窝结构,表面积高达1238 m2 g−1。由于多环芳烃构建块与乙烯的直接连接方式,所制备的COFs具有空间扩展的π-共轭和丰富的半导体性能。结果表明,它们具有优异的可见光催化活性和耐久性,在纯水中产生高达3820µmol g-1 h-1的H2O2,在苯甲醇作为空穴牺牲剂时甚至可以产生17080µmol g-1 h-1。
