Abstract
The design and engineering of precise molecular building blocks expand the scope of porous materials and boost the development of innovative photonic, dynamic, and adsorptive materials. Light-responsive Porous Switching Frameworks (PSFs) with BET surface area as high as 3948 m2 g-1 were generated by co-polymerization of molecular motors with rigid tetrahedral building blocks.[1] The quantitative molecular photoisomerization in the solid state promotes the modulation of gas adsorption properties, generating light-responsive materials suitable for actively switching devices. Self-standing sensitized triplet-triplet annihilation (s-TTA) upconverting nanoparticles were developed by inclusion of a porphyrin unit (sensitizer) in the cavities of Porous Emitting Frameworks (PEFs) comprising highly luminescent diphenyl anthracene (DPA) units.[2] The proximity between the guest sensitizer and DPA emitters promotes effective energy transfer and an up-conversion quantum yield as high as 0.15, a record value for solid-state materials. Porous Aromatic frameworks (PAFs) provide a stable platform with ultra-high pore volume. Highly reactive anionic species were generated on the framework or diffused in the pores to promote anchored and confined polymerization.[3] The “ship-in-a-bottle” polymerization process generates intimately interdigitated nanocomposites proved by 2D 13C solid-state NMR. Moreover, the living nature of anionic polymerization allowed the fabrication of polymer-coated nanoparticles with sequential architecture. The adsorptive properties of POPs can be tailored for selective gas adsorption: calixarene-based POPs provide great opportunity for gas storage and separation proved by high-pressure sorption, adsorption-coupled calorimetry, and breakthrough measurements under flow condition.[4] References [1] F.
