Engineering of phenylpyridine- and bipyridine-based covalent organic frameworks for photocatalytic tandem aerobic oxidation/povarov cyclization Ghent University KU Leuven
Covalentorganic frameworks (COFs) are emerging as a new classof photoactive organic semiconductors, which possess crystalline orderedstructures and high surface areas. COFs can be tailor-made towardspecific (photocatalytic) applications, and the size and positionof their band gaps can be tuned by the choice of building blocks andlinkages. However, many types of building blocks are still unexploredas photocatalytic moieties and the scope of ...
