Due to the presence of acetylene bonds, ETBA-TAPE-COF does not adopt the completely overlapping AA stacking mode. Slight interlayer displacement occurs along the parallel direction relative to the acetylene linkages, which facilitates lower configurational energy. Additionally, the introduction of pyrene group contributes to high π-electron mobility of ETBA-PYTA-COF. The interactions between electron-withdrawing group (ETBA) and electron-donating group (PYTA) during the processes of protonation and intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) endow ETBA-PYTA-COF with excellent acidochromic and solvatochromic properties, respectively. Based on this, a fluorescence sensor is successfully established, which can be used for rapid response to trace amounts of water in organic solvents. In contrast, ETBA-TAPE-COF does not exhibit these photophysical properties due to its higher HOMO–LUMO gap compared to ETBA-PYTA-COF.
