title: Porous, fluorescent, covalent triazine-based frameworks via room-temperature and microwave-assisted synthesis.
abstract: Porous, fluorescent, covalent triazine-based frameworks (CTFs) are obtained in an unprecedentedly mild reaction, opening up a scalable pathway for molecular building blocks previously thought incompatible with this chemistry. Choice of monomers and synthetic conditions determines the optical properties and nano-scale ordering of these highly microporous materials with BET surface areas exceeding 1100 m(2) g(-1) and exceptional CO(2) capacities (up to 4.17 mmol g(-1)).
