Real-time optical and electronic sensing with a ?-amino enone linked, triazine-containing 2D covalent organic framework.

ABSTRACT: Fully-aromatic, two-dimensional covalent organic frameworks (2D COFs) are hailed as candidates for electronic and optical devices, yet to-date few applications emerged that make genuine use of their rational, predictive design principles and permanent pore structure. Here, we present a 2D COF made up of chemoresistant ?-amino enone bridges and Lewis-basic triazine moieties that exhibits a dramatic real-time response in the visible spectrum and an increase in bulk conductivity by two orders of magnitude to a chemical trigger - corrosive HCl vapours. The optical and electronic response is fully reversible using a chemical switch (NH₃ vapours) or physical triggers (temperature or vacuum). These findings demonstrate a useful application of fully-aromatic 2D COFs as real-time responsive chemosensors and switches.

Ether-linked porphyrin covalent organic framework with broadband optical switch.

Project description:It is still a challenge to design and synthesize novel switchable optical materials with ultrafast nonlinear optical (NLO) response in a broad spectral range. These materials have exhibited great application potential in many high-technology fields such as biological imaging, chemical sensors, optical data storage, laser protection, and controllable intelligent and optoelectronic devices. By using porphyrins with highly delocalized 18 π-electron conjugated system as functional building blocks, the first ether-linked porphyrin covalent organic framework materials (COF-Pors) with highly ordered lattice structure have been successfully synthesized. In contrast to the starting porphyrins that only exhibit reverse saturable absorption (RSA) response at 532 nm, the as-prepared COF-Pors shows large NLO effect in a broad range from visible to near infrared. Upon laser illumination, COF-Pors exhibits typical saturable absorption (SA) effect at lower incident laser energy, and RSA response at higher pulse energy.

Imine-Linked Covalent Organic Framework with a Naphthalene Moiety as a Sensitive Phosphate Ion Sensing.

Project description:Due to the excellent ion-sensing potential of covalent organic frameworks (COFs), the new imine-linked conjugated COF (IC-COF) is synthesized through a water-based synthesis reaction between 1,5-diaminonaphthalene and 2,4,6-tris(4-formylphenoxy)-1,3,5-triazine to create a luminescence sensor. It is noteworthy that the green synthesized IC-COF shows excellent selectivity to phosphate ions (PO43-) with a detection limit of 0.61 μM. The recyclability performance of IC-COF is high, indicating that it can be reused without a significant reduction in performance (5.2% decline after 5 cycles). Theoretical calculations using the density functional theory are performed on the IC-COF-PO43- and IC-COF-Cu+ complexes to explore the sensing mechanism. The fluorescence quenching in the presence of PO43- ions is attributed to the difference between PO43- binding sites to the IC-COF compared to Cu+, which leads to the considerable change in the IC-COF absorption spectrum from 400 to 600 nm.

2D Covalent Organic Framework Direct Osteogenic Differentiation of Stem Cells.

Project description:2D covalent organic frameworks (COFs) are an emerging class of crystalline porous organic polymers with a wide-range of potential applications. However, poor processability, aqueous instability, and low water dispersibility greatly limit their practical biomedical implementation. Herein, a new class of hydrolytically stable 2D COFs for sustained delivery of drugs to direct stem cell fate is reported. Specifically, a boronate-based COF (COF-5) is stabilized using amphiphilic polymer Pluronic F127 (PLU) to produce COF-PLU nanoparticles with thickness of ≈25 nm and diameter ≈200 nm. These nanoparticles are internalized via clathrin-mediated endocytosis and have high cytocompatibility (half-inhibitory concentration ≈1 mg mL-1 ). Interestingly, the 2D COFs induce osteogenic differentiation in human mesenchymal stem cells, which is unique. In addition, an osteogenic agent-dexamethasone-is able to be loaded within the porous structure of COFs for sustained delivery which further enhances the osteoinductive ability. These results demonstrate for the first time the fabrication of hydrolytically stable 2D COFs for sustained delivery of dexamethasone and demonstrate its osteoinductive characteristics.

Supramolecular Reinforcement of a Large-Pore 2D Covalent Organic Framework.

Project description:Two-dimensional covalent organic frameworks (2D-COFs) are a class of crystalline porous organic polymers that consist of covalently linked, two-dimensional sheets that can stack together through noncovalent interactions. Here we report the synthesis of a novel COF, called PyCOFamide, which has an experimentally observed pore size that is greater than 6 nm in diameter. This is among the largest pore size reported to date for a 2D-COF. PyCOFamide exhibits permanent porosity and high crystallinity as evidenced by the nitrogen adsorption, powder X-ray diffraction, and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy. We show that the pore size of PyCOFamide is large enough to accommodate fluorescent proteins such as Superfolder green fluorescent protein and mNeonGreen. This work demonstrates the utility of noncovalent structural reinforcement in 2D-COFs to produce larger and persistent pore sizes than previously possible.

Mapping Grains, Boundaries, and Defects in 2D Covalent Organic Framework Thin Films.

Project description:To improve their synthesis and ultimately realize the technical promise of two-dimensional covalent organic frameworks (2D COFs), it is imperative that a robust understanding of their structure be developed. However, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HR-TEM) imaging of such beam-sensitive materials is an outstanding characterization challenge. Here, we overcome this challenge by leveraging low electron flux imaging conditions and high-speed direct electron counting detectors to acquire high-resolution images of 2D COF films. We developed a Fourier mapping technique to rapidly extract nanoscale structural information from these TEM images. This postprocessing script analyzes the evolution of 2D Fourier transforms across a TEM image, which yields information about polycrystalline domain orientations and enables quantification of average domain sizes. Moreover, this approach provides information about several types of defects present in a film, such as overlapping grains and various types of grain boundaries. We also find that the pre-eminent origin of defects in COF-5 films, a prototypical boronate ester-linked COF, arises as a consequence of broken B-O bonds formed during polymerization. These results suggest that the nanoscale features observed are a direct consequence of chemical phenomena. Taken together, this mapping approach provides information about the fundamental microstructure and crystallographic underpinnings of 2D COF films, which will guide the development of future 2D polymerization strategies and help realize the goal of using 2D COFs in a host of thin-film device architectures.

Computational Investigation on the Electronic Structure and Functionalities of a Thiophene-Based Covalent Triazine Framework.

Project description:Using the state-of-the-art theoretical method, we have investigated the electronic and optical properties of a thiophene-based covalent triazine framework (TBCTF). We have found that TBCTF is a direct band gap semiconductor. Our calculations reveal that constitutional isomerism is a tool for band gap tuning. The variation of band gap can be achieved by the bilayer TBCTF formation and further can be tuned by the z-axial strain. We have designed a new two-dimensional van der Waals heterostructure g-ZnO/TBCTF, which shows type-II band alignment, ensuring effective separation of photogenerated electron-hole pairs. This composite system also exhibits enhanced absorption in the visible range compared to that of individual g-ZnO and TBCTF monolayers. Therefore, this composite system may find potential application in photovoltaic devices. We have also investigated the hydrogen adsorption ability of TBCTF through Li atom doping. Our results indicate that the calculated hydrogen adsorption energies lie in the range, which is suitable for reversible hydrogen storage under ambient conditions. Therefore, the lithium-doped TBCTF may be a potential candidate for the hydrogen storage material.

Optical Properties of Isolated and Covalent Organic Framework-Embedded Ruthenium Complexes.

Project description:Heterogenization of RuL3 complexes on a support with proper anchor points provides a route toward design of green catalysts. In this paper, Ru(II) polypyridyl complexes are investigated with the aim to unravel the influence on the photocatalytic properties of varying nitrogen content in the ligands and of embedding the complex in a triazine-based covalent organic framework. To provide fundamental insight into the electronic mechanisms underlying this behavior, a computational study is performed. Both the ground and excited state properties of isolated and anchored ruthenium complexes are theoretically investigated by means of density functional theory and time-dependent density functional theory. Varying the ligands among 2,2'-bipyridine, 2,2'-bipyrimidine, and 2,2'-bipyrazine allows us to tune to a certain extent the optical gaps and the metal to ligand charge transfer excitations. Heterogenization of the complex within a CTF support has a significant effect on the nature and energy of the electronic transitions. The allowed transitions are significantly red-shifted toward the near IR region and involve transitions from states localized on the CTF toward ligands attached to the ruthenium. The study shows how variations in ligands and anchoring on proper supports allows us to increase the range of wavelengths that may be exploited for photocatalysis.

Controlled growth of imine-linked two-dimensional covalent organic framework nanoparticles.

Project description:Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) consist of monomers arranged in predictable structures with emergent properties. However, improved crystallinity, porosity, and solution processability remain major challenges. To this end, colloidal COF nanoparticles are useful for mechanistic studies of nucleation and growth and enable advanced spectroscopy and solution processing of thin films. Here we present a general approach to synthesize imine-linked 2D COF nanoparticles and control their size by favoring imine polymerization while preventing the nucleation of new particles. The method yields uniform, crystalline, and high-surface-area particles and is applicable to several imine-linked COFs. In situ X-ray scattering experiments reveal the nucleation of amorphous polymers, which crystallize via imine exchange processes during and after particle growth, consistent with previous mechanistic studies of imine-linked COF powders. The separation of particle formation and growth processes offers control of particle size and may enable further improvements in crystallinity in the future.

Total scattering reveals the hidden stacking disorder in a 2D covalent organic framework.

Project description:Interactions between extended π-systems are often invoked as the main driving force for stacking and crystallization of 2D organic polymers. In covalent organic frameworks (COFs), the stacking strongly influences properties such as the accessibility of functional sites, pore geometry, and surface states, but the exact nature of the interlayer interactions is mostly elusive. The stacking mode is often identified as eclipsed based on observed high symmetry diffraction patterns. However, as pointed out by various studies, the energetics of eclipsed stacking are not favorable and offset stacking is preferred. This work presents lower and higher apparent symmetry modifications of the imine-linked TTI-COF prepared through high- and low-temperature reactions. Through local structure investigation by pair distribution function analysis and simulations of stacking disorder, we observe random local layer offsets in the low temperature modification. We show that while stacking disorder can be easily overlooked due to the apparent crystallographic symmetry of these materials, total scattering methods can help clarify this information and suggest that defective local structures could be much more prevalent in COFs than previously thought. A detailed analysis of the local structure helps to improve the search for and design of highly porous tailor-made materials.

A General Synthesis Method for Covalent Organic Framework and Inorganic 2D Materials Hybrids.

Project description:Two-dimensional (2D) inorganic/organic hybrids provide a versatile platform for diverse applications, including electronic, catalysis, and energy storage devices. The recent surge in 2D covalent organic frameworks (COFs) has introduced an organic counterpart for the development of advanced 2D organic/inorganic hybrids with improved electronic coupling, charge separation, and carrier mobility. However, existing synthesis methods have primarily focused on few-layered film structures, which limits scalability for practical applications. Herein, we present a general synthesis approach for a range of COF/inorganic 2D material hybrids, utilizing 2D inorganic materials as both catalysts and inorganic building blocks. By leveraging the intrinsic Lewis acid sites on the inorganic 2D materials such as hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) and transition metal dichalcogenides, COFs with diverse functional groups and topologies can grow on the surface of inorganic 2D materials. The controlled 2D morphology and excellent solution dispersibility of the resulting hybrids allow for easy processing into films through vacuum filtration. As proof of concept, hBN/COF films were employed as filters for Rhodamine 6G removal under flow-through conditions, achieving a removal rate exceeding 93%. The present work provides a simple and versatile synthesis method for the scalable fabrication of COF/inorganic 2D hybrids, offering exciting opportunities for practical applications such as water treatment and energy storage.
