Mechanochemical crystallization of covalent organic frameworks: from the linkage up

reactions and post-synthetic modifications (PSMs). Additionally, by highlighting direct comparisons between reaction conditions in and out of solution, this review will underline key connections across synthetic methods and may serve as a guide in the selection of appropriate chemical and mechanical factors for initial precursor and COF screenings. Ultimately, the literature highlighted in this review will lower the barrier of entry, facilitating efficient design of mechanochemical syntheses for imine-derived COFs from the linkage up.
