Hollow Microspherical and Microtubular [3 + 3] Carbazole-Based Covalent Organic Frameworks and Their Gas and Energy Storage Applications.

Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) are a family of crystalline porous networks having applications in various fields, including gas and energy storage. Despite respectable progress in the synthesis of such crystalline materials, examples of the use of template-free methods to construct COFs having hollow nano- and microstructures are rare. Furthermore, all reported methods for synthesizing these hollow structural COFs have involved [4 + 2] and [3 + 2] condensations. Herein, we report the synthesis of hollow microspherical and microtubular carbazole-based COFs through template-free, one-pot, [3 + 3] condensations of the novel triamine 9-(4-aminophenyl)-carbazole-3,6-diamine (Car-3NH2) and triformyl linkers with various degrees of planarity. Depending upon the monomer's planarity, a unique morphological variety was observed. A time-dependent study revealed that each COF formed through an individual mechanism depended on the degree of planarity of the triformyl linker; it also confirmed that the hollow structures of these COFs formed through inside-out Ostwald ripening. Our COFs exhibited high Brunauer-Emmett-Teller surface areas (up to ca. 1400 m2 g-1), excellent crystallinity, and high thermal stability. Moreover, the CO2 uptake capacities of these COFs were excellent: up to 61 and 123 mg g-1 at 298 and 273 K, respectively. The high surface areas facilitated greater numbers of strong interactions with CO2 molecules, leading to high CO2 uptake capacities. Moreover, the prepared COFs exhibited redox activity because of their redox-active triphenylamine and pyridine groups, which can be utilized in electrochemical energy storages. Accordingly, such hollow COFs having high surface areas appear to be useful materials for industrial and biological applications.
