Modulating the Band Structure of Metal Coordinated Salen COFs and an In Situ Constructed Charge Transfer Heterostructure for Electrocatalysis Hydrogen Evolution.

ABSTRACT: A series of crystalline, stable Metal (Metal = Zn, Cu, Ni, Co, Fe, and Mn)-Salen covalent organic framework (COF)_EDA complex are prepared to continuously tune the band structure of Metal-Salen COF_EDA , with the purpose of optimizing the free energy intermediate species during the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) process. The conductive macromolecular poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) is subsequently integrated into the one-dimensional (1D) channel arrays of Metal-Salen COF_EDA to form heterostructure PEDOT@Metal-Salen COF_EDA via the in situ solid-state polymerization method. Among the Metal-Salen COF_EDA and PEDOT@Metal-Salen COF_EDA complexes, the optimized PEDOT@Mn-Salen COF_EDA displays prominent electroche
