Crystallizing covalent organic frameworks from metal organic framework through chemical induced-phase engineering.

ABSTRACT: The ordered porous frameworks like MOFs and COFs are generally constructed using the monomers through distinctive metal-coordinated and covalent linkages. Meanwhile, the inter-structural transition between each class of these porous materials is an under-explored research area. However, such altered frameworks are expected to have exciting features compared to their pristine versions. Herein, we have demonstrated a chemical-induction phase-engineering strategy to transform a two-dimensional conjugated Cu-based SA-MOF (Cu-Tp) into 2D-COFs (Cu-TpCOFs). The structural phase transition offered in-situ pore size engineering from 1.1 nm to 1.5-2.0 nm. Moreover, the Cu-TpCOFs showed uniform and low percentage-doped (~ 1-1.5%) metal distribution and improved crystallinity, porosity, and stability
