Construction of 2D covalent organic frameworks by taking advantage of the variable orientation of imine bonds.
A model system has been established to construct two-dimensional (2D) covalent organic frameworks (COFs) by taking advantage of the variable orientation of imine bonds. During the assembly process, the imine bonds adopt an unprecedented heterodromous orientation to facilitate the formation of the COFs.
