A Functionalized Covalent Organic Frameworks with Triazine and Triazole Motifs

Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) with triazine motifs have been widely used in the field of photocatalysis due to their nitrogen-rich structure and strong chemical stability. However, their photocatalytic performances are still inadequate and need further improvement. Herein, nitrile monomers with triazole motifs are specifically chosen to as the precursor to produce a functionalized COFs with triazine and triazole motifs through microwave synthesis method. The as-prepared material exhibits broad light absorption, efficient charge separation and attractive photocatalytic hydrogen peroxide production.
