Article Synopsis
  • - The synthesis of metal-encapsulated covalent organic frameworks (metal/COFs) has been slow and complicated, typically taking four or more days, which limits their use in catalysis.
  • - A new, quicker method using microwave-assisted in situ metal encapsulation allows for the formation of palladium(II)-encapsulated COFs (Mw-Pd/COF) in just one hour, even in open air, making it scalable for larger production.
  • - The resulting Mw-Pd/COFs show excellent performance in catalysis, particularly in the Suzuki-Miyaura coupling reaction, while also retaining great stability and recyclability, indicating their potential for various applications like energy storage and sensing.

Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) have emerged as auspicious porous adsorbents for radioiodine capture. However, their conventional solvothermal synthesis demands multiday synthetic times and anaerobic conditions, largely hampering their practical use. To tackle these challenges, we present a facile microwave-assisted synthesis of 2D imine-linked COFs, Mw-TFB-BD-X, (X = -CH and -OCH) under air within just 1 h.
