Abstract
Highly conjugated three-dimensional (3D) COFs are still rarely reported due to the limited availability of the π-conjugated building blocks in 3D spatial directions. In this study, we successfully constructed a 3D COF named 3D-Por-SP-COF by using orthogonal 3D spirobifluorene and a planar 2D porphyrin as π-conjugated units. The porphyrin units that existed in the unobstructed one-dimensional (1D) channel walls could efficiently chelate metal ions to form a metal-supported 3D COF (Co@3D-Por-SP-COF). This rich exposure of the metal ions as active sites can maximize the advantages of 3D COFs for the electrochemical catalytic hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). The experimental results showed that Co@3D-Por-SP-COF required small onset potentials (72 mV to reach 1.0 mA cm−2) and low overpotentials (175 mV to reach 10 mA cm−2) under alkaline conditions. Compared to many porous organic polymers, the obtained metal-based 3D COF exhibits comparable or even better electrocatalytic performance.
期刊介绍:
Materials Chemistry Frontiers focuses on the synthesis and chemistry of exciting new materials, and the development of improved fabrication techniques. Characterisation and fundamental studies that are of broad appeal are also welcome.
This is the ideal home for studies of a significant nature that further the development of organic, inorganic, composite and nano-materials.
