Abstract

We report a new synthetic protocol for preparing highly ordered two-dimensional nanoporous covalent organic frameworks (2D-COFs) based on a quinoxaline backbone. The quinoxaline framework represents a new type of COF that enables postsynthetic modification by placing two different chemical functionalities within the nanopores including layer-to-layer cross-linking. We also demonstrate that membranes fabricated using this new 2D-COF perform highly selective separations resulting in dramatic performance enhancement post cross-linking.
