Covalent organic framework compounds are more active as catalysts than one would expect. Researchers have now discovered why.
Covalent organic frameworks are less stable as catalysts than previously thought but remain highly active. COFs are promising designer catalysts, for example for the sustainable production of chemicals and fuels. Their properties can be adjusted very specifically to catalyze a desired reaction based on their precise tunability, both in terms of molecular structure and chemical compositions.
In their publication, the authors also provide suggestions on how catalyst-loaded COFs could be produced in a targeted manner in the future so that they remain stable and catalytically active even under harsh reaction conditions.Pouya Hosseini, Andrés Rodríguez‐Camargo, Yiqun Jiang, Siyuan Zhang, Christina Scheu, Liang Yao, Bettina V.
