Azatriangulene-Based Conductive C═C Linked Covalent Organic Frameworks with Near-Infrared Emission.

ABSTRACT: Two near-infrared (NIR) emissive π-conjugated covalent organic frameworks (COFs) pTANG1 and pTANG2 are synthesized using Knoevenagel condensation of trioxaazatriangulenetricarbaldehyde (TATANG) with benzene- and biphenyldiacetonitriles, respectively. The morphology of the COFs is affected by the size of TATANG precursor crystals. Donor-acceptor interactions in these COFs result in small bandgaps (≈1.6 eV) and NIR emission (λ_max = 789 nm for pTANG1). pTANG1 can absorb up to 9 molecules of water per unit cell, which is accompanied by a marked quenching of the NIR emission, suggesting applications as humidity sensors. p-Doping with magic blue significantly increases the electrical conductivities of the COFs by up to 8 orders of magnitude, with the room temperature conductivity of p
