Low-temperature synthesis of porous organic polymers with donor-acceptor structure and β-ketoenamine for photocatalytic oxidative coupling of amines.

In light of the widespread use of fossil fuels and the resulting environmental pollution, it is crucial to develop efficient photocatalysts for renewable energy applications that utilize visible light. Organic photocatalysts based on β-ketoenamine offer several advantages, including facile preparation, high stability, structural controllability, and excellent photovoltaic properties. However, in previous studies, the synthesis of porous organic polymers (POPs) often involved long, high-temperature processes.
