Abstract
The shortage of freshwater resources caused by heavy metal pollution is an acute global issue, which has a great impact on environmental protection and human health. Therefore, the exploitation of new strategies for designing and synthesizing green, efficient, and economical materials for the detection and removal of heavy metal ions is crucial. Among the various methods for the detection and removal of heavy ions, advanced functional systems including nanomaterials, polymers, porous materials, and biomaterials have attracted considerable attention over the past several years due to their capabilities of real-time detection, excellent removal efficiency, anti-interference, quick response, high selectivity, and low limit of detection. In this tutorial review, we review the general design principles underlying the aforementioned functional materials, and in particular highlight the fundamental mechanisms and specific examples of detecting and removing heavy metal ions. Additionally, the methods which enhance water purification quality using these functional materials have been reviewed, also current challenges and opportunities in this exciting field have been highlighted, including the fabrication, subsequent treatment, and potential future applications of such functional materials. We envision that this tutorial review will provide invaluable guidance for the design of functional materials tailored towards the detection and removal of heavy metals, thereby expediting the development of high-performance materials and fostering the development of more efficient approaches to water pollution remediation.

Abstract
Two-dimensional (2D) covalent organic frameworks (COFs) with versatile structural and optoelectronic properties that can be tuned with building blocks and topological structures have received widespread attention for photocatalytic water splitting in recent years. However, few of these have been reported for overall water splitting under visible light. Here, we present a data-driven search of 2D COFs capable of visible-light-driven overall water splitting by combining high-throughput first-principles computations and experimental validations. Seven 2D COFs were identified to be capable of overall water splitting from the CoRE COF database, and their photocatalytic activities were further verified and optimized by our preliminary experiments. The production rates of H2 and O2 reached 80 and 32 μmol g-1 h-1, respectively, without using sacrificial agents. This work represents an attempt to explore 2D COFs for visible-light-driven overall water splitting with a data-driven approach that could accelerate the discovery and design of COFs toward photocatalytic overall water splitting.

Abstract
The selective separation of thorium from rare earth elements and uranium is a critical part of the development and application of thorium nuclear energy in the future. To better understand the role of different N sites on the selective capture of Th(IV), we design an ionic COF named Py-TFImI-25 COF and its deionization analog named Py-TFIm-25 COF, both of which exhibit record-high separation factors ranging from 102 to 105. Py-TFIm-25 COF exhibits a significantly higher Th(IV) uptake capacity and adsorption rate than Py-TFImI-25 COF, which also outperforms the majority of previously reported adsorbents. The selective capture of Py-TFImI-25 COF and Py-TFIm-25 COF on thorium is via Th-N coordination interaction. The prioritization of Th(IV) binding at different N sites and the mechanism of selective coordination are then investigated. This work provides an in-depth insight into the relationship between structure and performance, which can provide positive feedback on the design of novel adsorbents for this field.

Abstract
Covalent organic frameworks (COFs), featured with crystalline structures, permanent porosity, and designable organic skeletons, are good candidates for serving as adsorbents. Herein, a new pyridine-based two-dimensional COF (TAPP-DBTA-COF) was constructed via the condensation of 2,4,6-tris(4-aminophenyl)pyridine and 2,5-dibromobenzene-1,4-dicarbaldehyde. TAPP-DBTA-COF displayed high-performance for the removal of rhodamine B (Rh B) from water with high capacity, good adaptability and reusability. The maximum adsorption capacity for Rh B can reach up to 1254 mg g-1, and the kinetic constant was determined as k2 = 0.00244 g mg-1 min-1. Moreover, the corresponding amorphous polymer of TAPP-DBTA-COF, termed as TAPP-DBTA-COP, was synthesized from the same starting materials. The lower efficiency of TAPP-DBTA-COP in capture of Rh B revealed that the ordered pore structure, large specific surface area and rich adsorption sites play an important role in adsorption.

SMALL (WEINHEIM AN DER BERGSTRASSE, GERMANY) 2023; 19:e2207972.

Abstract
sp2 carbon-conjugated covalent organic framework (sp2 c-COF) featured with high π-conjugation, high chemical stabilities, and designable chemical structures, are thus promising for applications including adsorption and separation, optoelectronic devices, and catalysis. For the most of these applications, large-area and continuous films are required. However, due to the needs of harsh conditions in the formation of CC bonds, classical interfacial methodologies are challenged in the synthesis of sp2 c-COFs films. Herein, a novel and robust interfacial method namely copper-surface-mediated Knoevenagel polycondensation (Cu-SMKP), is shown for scalable synthesis of sp2 c-COF films on various Cu substrates. Using this approach, large-area and continuous sp2 c-COF films could be prepared on various complicated Cu surfaces with thickness from tens to hundreds of nanometers. The resultant sp2 c-COF films on Cu substrate could be used directly as functional electrode for extraction of uranium from spiked seawater, which gives an exceptionally uptake capacity of 2475 mg g-1 . These results delineate significant synthetic advances in sp2 c-COF films and implemented them as functional electrodes for uranyl capture.

Building Blocks and COFs Formed in Concert-Three-Component Synthesis of Pyrene-Fused Azaacene Covalent Organic Framework in the Bulk and as Films. Angew Chem Int Ed Engl 2023; 62:e202302872.

Abstract
A three-component synthesis methodology is described for the formation of covalent organic frameworks (COFs) containing extended aromatics. Notably, this approach enables synthesis of the building blocks and COF along parallel reaction landscapes, on a similar timeframe. The use of fragmental building block components, namely pyrene dione diboronic acid as aggregation-inducing COF precursor and the diamines o-phenylenediamine (Ph), 2,3-diaminonaphthalene (Naph), or (1R,2R)-(+)-1,2-diphenylethylenediamine (2Ph) as extending functionalization units in conjunction with 2,3,6,7,10,11-hexahydroxytriphenylene, resulted in the formation of the corresponding pyrene-fused azaacene, i.e., Aza-COF series with full conversion of the dione moiety, long-range order, and high surface area. In addition, the novel three-component synthesis was successfully applied to produce highly crystalline, oriented thin films of the Aza-COFs with nanostructured surfaces on various substrates. The Aza-COFs exhibit light absorption maxima in the blue spectral region, and each Aza-COF presents a distinct photoluminescence profile. Transient absorption measurements of Aza-Ph- and Aza-Naph-COFs suggest ultrafast relaxation dynamics of excited-states within these COFs.

Abstract
Shaping covalent organic frameworks (COFs) into macroscopic objects for practical application remains a huge challenge. Herein, a new thiadiazole-derived COF macroscopic ultralight aerogel (NNS-VCOF) was prepared through acid-catalyzed aldol condensation between 2,5-dimethyl-1,3,4-thiadiazole and a tritopic aromatic aldehyde derivative. NNS-VCOF aerogel shows extremely low density (ca. 0.020 g cm-3), excellent mechanical properties (compression modulus of 16.65 kPa), thermal insulation properties (low thermal conductivity of 0.03270 W m-1 K-1 at 25 °C), and flame retardancy (quickly self-extinguishing after ignition) due to its three-dimensional sponge-like architecture and special nitrogen heterocyclic framework. To our delight, NNS-VCOF aerogel not only can be used as an outstanding macroscopic material but also shows efficient photocatalytic hydrogen evolution properties in a powder state because of the superhydrophilicity and appropriate optical properties.

Abstract
The type of reactions and the availability of monomers for the synthesis of sp2-c linked covalent organic frameworks (COFs) are considerably limited by the irreversibility of the C=C bond. Herein, inspired by the Claisen-Schmidt condensation reaction, two propenone-linked (C=C-C=O) COFs (named Py-DAB and PyN-DAB) are developed based on the base-catalyzed nucleophilic addition reaction of ketone-activated α-H with aromatic aldehydes. The introduction of propenone structure endows COFs with high crystallinity, excellent physicochemical stability, and intriguing optoelectronic properties. Benefitting from the rational design on the COFs skeleton, Py-DAB and PyN-DAB are applied to the extraction of radionuclide uranium. In particular, PyN-DAB shows excellent removal rates (>98%) in four uranium mine wastewater samples. We highlight that such a general strategy can provide a valuable avenue toward various functional porous crystalline materials.

Abstract
Herein, a novel fluorescent ionic covalent organic framework (BTTA-BDNP) based on a linked carbazole unit was constructed for the synchronous monitoring and capture of TcO4-/ReO4-. BTTA-BDNP has a fast fluorescence response time with a low detection limit (66.7 nM) for ReO4- (a non-radioactive substitute for TcO4-). Meanwhile, the high charge density and hydrophobic skeleton of BTTA-BDNP enable it to exhibit rapid and selective trapping of ReO4- in complex environments.

Abstract
Photocatalytic reduction of UVI to UIV can help remove U from the environment and thus reduce the harmful impacts of radiation emitted by uranium isotopes. Herein, we first synthesized Bi4Ti3O12 (B1) particles, then B1 was crosslinked with 6-chloro-1,3,5-triazine-diamine (DCT) to afford B2. Finally, B3 was formed using B2 and 4-formylbenzaldehyde (BA-CHO) to investigate the utility of the D-π-A array structure for photocatalytic UVI removal from rare earth tailings wastewater. B1 lacked adsorption sites and displayed a wide band gap. The grafted triazine moiety in B2 introduced active sites and narrowed the band gap. Notably, B3, a Bi4Ti3O12 (donor)-triazine unit (π-electron bridge)-aldehyde benzene (acceptor) molecule, effectively formed the D-π-A array structure, which formed multiple polarization fields and further narrowed the band gap. Therefore, UVI was more likely to capture electrons at the adsorption site of B3 and be reduced to UIV due to energy level matching effects. UVI removal capacity of B3 under simulated sunlight was 684.9 mg g-1, 2.5 times greater than B1 and 1.8 times greater than B2. B3 was still active after multiple reaction cycles, and UVI removal from tailings wastewater reached 90.8%. Overall, B3 provides an alternative design scheme for enhancing photocatalytic performance.

Abstract
The application of covalent organic frameworks (COFs) in electrochemiluminescence (ECL) is promising in environmental monitoring. Developing an emerging design strategy to expand the class of COF-based ECL luminophores is highly desirable. Here, a COF-based host-guest system was constructed through guest molecular assembly to deal with nuclear contamination analysis. The efficient charge transport network was formed by inserting an electron-withdrawing guest tetracyanoquinodimethane (TCNQ) into the open space of the COF host (TP-TBDA; TP = 2,4,6-trihydroxy-1,3,5-benzenetricarbaldehyde and TBDA = 2,5-di(thiophen-2-yl)benzene-1,4-diamine) with an electron-donating property; the construction of the COF-based host-guest system (TP-TBDA@TCNQ) triggered the ECL emission of non-emitting TP-TBDA. Furthermore, the dense active sites in TP-TBDA were utilized to capture the target substance UO22+. The presence of UO22+ broke the charge-transfer effect in TP-TBDA@TCNQ, resulting in the weakening of the ECL signal, thus the established ECL system integrating the low detection limit with high selectivity monitors UO22+. This COF-based host-guest system provides a novel material platform for constructing late-model ECL luminophores and creates an opportunity for the vigorous ECL technology.

Abstract
Plasmonic photocatalysis is an effective strategy to solve radioactive uranium hazards in wastewater. A plasmonic photocatalyst Bi/Bi2O3-x@COFs was synthesized by in-situ growth of covalent organic frameworks (COFs) on Bi/Bi2O3-x surface for the U(VI) adsorption and plasmonic photoreduction in rare earth tailings wastewater. The presence of oxygen vacancy in Bi/Bi2O3-x and Schottky potential well formed by Bi and Bi2O3-x interface increased the number of free electrons, which induced localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) and enhanced the light absorption performance of composites. In addition, oxygen vacancy improved the Fermi level of Bi/Bi2O3-x, leading to another potential well between Bi2O3-x and COFs interface. The electron transport direction was reversed, thus increasing the electron density of COFs layer. COFs was an N-type semiconductor with specific binding U(VI) groups and suitable band structure, which could be used as an active reaction site. Bi/Bi2O3-x@COFs had 1411.5 mg g-1 removal capacity and high separation coefficient for U(VI) due to the synergistic action of photogenerated electrons and hot electrons. Moreover, the removal rate of uranium from rare earth tailings wastewater by regenerated Bi/Bi2O3-x@COFs was over 93.9%. The scheme of introducing LSPR and Schottky potential well provides another way to improve the photocatalytic effect.

Abstract
Selective capture of radioactive 99TcO4- from highly alkaline nuclear waste is highly desirable for environmental remediation and waste disposal. However, the combined features of adsorbents with excellent chemical stability and high capture selectivity for 99TcO4- have not yet been achieved. Herein, we report an ultra-stable 3D pyridinium salt-based polymeric network (TMP-TBPM) nanotrap with remarkable radiation, acid and base stability for selective capture of ReO4- via hydrophobic engineering and steric hindrance, a non-radioactive surrogate of 99TcO4-. The batch capture experiments show that TMP-TBPM has high capture capacity (918.7 mg g-1) and fast sorption kinetics (94.3 % removal in 2 min), which can be attributed to the high density of pyridinium salt-based units on the highly accessible pore channels of 3D interconnected low-density skeleton. In addition, the introduction of abundant alkyl and tetraphenylmethane units into the 3D framework not only greatly enhanced the hydrophobicity and stability of TMP-TBPM, but also significantly improved the affinity toward 99TcO4-/ReO4-, enabling reversible and selective capture of 99TcO4-/ReO4- even under highly alkaline conditions. This study exhibits the great potential of 3D pyridinium salt-based polymeric network nanotrap for 99TcO4-/ReO4- capture from highly alkaline nuclear waste, providing a new strategy to construct high-performance cationic polymeric sorbents for radioactive wastewater treatment.

Abstract
A new strategy for nereistoxin-related insecticide, cartap, detection in foodstuff and the environment is of great importance due to its poisoning of human beings through direct exposure or via biomagnification. Herein, a highly planar conjugated sp2 carbon-connected COF (F-Csp2-TT) was synthesized via Knoevenagel condensation reaction followed by the post-modification to develop a new platform for cartap visual detection in agricultural and food samples. The synergistic effect of highly planar conjugation and dense functional groups in the opened framework endowed F-Csp2-TT with a high-precision luminescence sensing performance. Meanwhile, the exquisitely designed F-Csp2-TT presented robust chemical stability, radiation stability, and good reproducibility. Benefiting from these advantages, high-precision luminescent F-Csp2-TT achieves a low detection limit of 0.51 μg/L to cartap over the range of 1-300 μg/L (R2=0.9938), and the recoveries percentage in food products was calculated as 95.90%- 119.3%. More significantly, the smartphone-based high-precision platform by F-Csp2-TT was established and successfully applied to portable monitoring of cartap and water content. Therefore, our work revealed the enormous potential of Csp2-connected COF, which opened a new situation for insecticide detection.

Abstract
In consideration of the severe hazards of radioactive uranium pollution and the growing demand of uranium resources, the novel sensor/adsorbent composite was creatively developed to integrate the dual functions for on-site detection of uranium contamination and efficient recovery of uranium resources. By hybridizing the luminescent 3D terbium (III) metal-organic framework (Tb-MOF) with sodium alginate (SA) gel using terbium (III) as cross-linker, the Tb-MOF/Tb-AG was fabricated with multi-luminescence centers and sufficient binding sites for uranium. Notably, the ultra-high sensitivity with detection limit as low as 1.2 ppt was achieved, which was 4 orders of magnitude lower than the uranium contamination standard in drinking water (USEPA) and even comparable to the sensitivity of the ICP-MS. Furthermore, the very wide quantification range (1.0 ×10-9-5.0 ×10-4 mol/L), remarkable adsorption capacity (549.0 mg/g) and outstanding anti-interference ability have been achieved without sophisticated sample preparation procedures. Applied in complex natural water samples from Uranium Tailings and the Pearl River, this method has shown good detection accuracy. The ultra high sensitivity and great adsorption capacity for uranium could be ascribed to the synergistic coordination, hydrogen bonding and ion exchange between uranium and Tb-MOF/Tb-AG. The mechanisms were explored by infrared spectroscopy, batch experiments, X-ray photoelectron studies and energy dispersive spectroscopic studies. In addition, the Tb-MOF/Tb-AG can be reused for uranium adsorption.

Abstract
Obesity leads to the development of many metabolic diseases, causing severe health problems. Menthol can induce adipocyte browning and thus has been used to combat obesity. To deliver menthol with a sustained effect, an injectable hydrogel that comprises carboxymethyl chitosan and aldehyde-functionalized alginate that are crosslinked through dynamic Schiff-base linkages is developed to load menthol-cyclodextrin inclusion complexes (IC). To render the as-developed hydrogel soluble after its payload is released, amino acid-loaded liposomes, functioning as nanocontrollers, are covalently grafted onto networks of the hydrogel. Upon subcutaneous injection in mice with diet-induced obesity, the as-developed hydrogel absorbs body fluids and spontaneously swells, expanding and stretching its networks, gradually releasing the loaded IC. Menthol then disassociates from the released IC to induce adipocyte browning, triggering fat consumption and increasing energy expenditure. Meanwhile, the expanded hydrogel networks destabilize the grafted liposomes, which function as built-in nanocontrollers, unleashing their loaded amino acid molecules to disrupt the dynamic Schiff-base linkages, causing hydrogel to dissolve. The thus-developed nanocontroller-mediated dissolving hydrogel realizes the sustained release of menthol for treating obesity and its related metabolic disorders without leaving exogenous hydrogel materials inside the body, and thereby preventing any undesired adverse effects.

Abstract
Continuous accumulation of Al3+ in the human body and unintended leakage of UO22+ have posed a great threat to human health and the global environment; thus searching an efficient probe for the detection of Al3+ and UO22+ is of great importance. Herein, we designed and synthesized two hydrolytically stable Eu3+- and Tb3+-functionalized MOF materials Eu@MOF-808-TDA and Tb@MOF-808-TDA via thiodiglycolic acid (TDA) intermediates by the postsynthetic modification method. Among them, Tb@MOF-808-TDA was applied to construct numerical recognition systems of multiples of three and four by the combination of fluorescent signals, hierarchical cluster analysis, and logical gates. In addition, Tb@MOF-808-TDA exhibits good selectivity and sensitivity for the detection of Al3+ and UO22+. The detection limit is calculated to be 0.085 ppm for Al3+ and 0.082 ppm for UO22+ in aqueous solutions, which is lower than or close to that of latest reported Ln-MOFs. Moreover, the probe shows excellent hydrolytic stability and luminescence stability in the pH range of 4-11, further providing solid evidence for the practical application of Tb@MOF-808-TDA. More importantly, a mixed matrix hydrogel PVA-Tb@MOF-808-TDA was prepared to achieve the visual detection of Al3+, which broadens the potential in real-world sensing applications.

Abstract
Nanomaterials with enzyme mimetic activity have attracted extensive attention, especially in the regulation of their catalytic activities by biomolecules or other polymers. Here, a covalent organic framework (Tph-BT COF) with excellent photocatalytic activity is constructed by Schiff base reaction, and its mimetic oxidase activity and peroxidase activity is inversely regulated via single-stranded DNA (ssDNA). Under light-emitting diode (LED) light irradiation, Tph-BT exhibited outstanding oxidase activity, which efficiently catalyzed oxidation of 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) to produce blue oxTMB, and ssDNA, especially those with poly-thymidine (T) sequences, can significantly inhibit its oxidase activity. On the contrary, Tph-BT showed weak peroxidase activity, and the presence of ssDNA, particularly poly-cytosine (C) sequences, can remarkably enhance the peroxidase activity. The influence of base type, base length, and other factors on the activities of two enzymes is also studied, and the results reveal that the adsorption of ssDNA on the surface of Tph-BT prevented intersystem crossing (ISC) and energy transfer processes to reduce 1 O2 generation, while the electrostatic interaction between ssDNA and TMB enhanced Tph-BT's affinity for TMB to facilitate the electron transfer from TMB to • OH. This study investigates multitype mimetic enzyme activities of nonmetallic D-A conjugated COFs and demonstrates their feasibility of regulation by ssDNA.

Abstract
Here, we present a protocol for uranium extraction from seawater (UES) and its characterization and computational-based structure analysis. We describe formulating batch adsorption experiments for adsorptive separation of uranium using thin film (TFCH) of Hydrogen-bonded Organic Framework (CSMCRIHOF-1). We then detail the recovery of uranium using eluent mixtures and the steps to regenerate TFCH for recyclability studies. Finally, we describe the spectroscopic characterizations of TFCH and uranium adsorbed TFCH, followed by computational analysis of the structures and binding sites. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Kaushik et al. (2022).1.

Abstract
Efficient extraction of radioactive 99TcO4- from strong acid/base solutions by porous adsorbents is extremely desirable but remains a great challenge. To overcome the challenge, here we report the first example of an olefin-linked cationic covalent organic framework (COF) named BDBI-TMT with excellent acid, base and radiation stability is synthesized by integrating robust imidazolium salt-based linkers with triazine building blocks. BDBI-TMT shows an ultra-fast adsorption kinetics (equilibrium is reached within 1 min) and an excellent ReO4- (a non-radioactive surrogate of 99TcO4-) capture capacity of 726 mg g-1, which can be attributed to the abundance of precisely tailored imidazolium salt-based units on the highly accessible pore walls of the ordered pore channels. Furthermore, the formation of the highly conjugated bulky alkyl skeleton enhances the hydrophobicity of BDBI-TMT, which significantly improves not only the affinity toward ReO4-/99TcO4- but also the chemical stability, allowing selective and reversible extraction of ReO4-/99TcO4- even under extreme conditions. This work demonstrates the great potential of olefin-linked cationic COFs for ReO4-/99TcO4- extraction, providing a new avenue to construct high-performance porous adsorbents for radionuclide remediation.

Abstract
To ensure the long-term sustainable development of nuclear energy as well as the prevention and control of uranium pollution, new materials that can simultaneously detect and separate uranium are still urgently needed. Herein, a new fluorescent covalent organic polymer (COP), namely HT-COP-AO, was synthesized andemployed as both the fluorescent probe and absorbent for simultaneous uranium detection and separationconsidering its excellent fluorescence property and strong uranium coordination ability. The results showed that the fluorescence of HT-COP-AO was quickly quenched by uranium within 2 min, and the limit of detection was 0.23 µM (3σ/K). Further studies implied that uranium was coordinated with the amidoxime groups of HT-COP-AO through U-N and O = U = O bonds, which resulted in electron transfer from uranium to HT-COP-AO and quenching the fluorescence of HT-COP-AO consequently. Meanwhile, HT-COP-AO exhibited excellent absorption ability towards uranium, and the maximum absorption capacity (qmax = 401.3 mg/g) was higher than most reported amidoxime modified materials. The HT-COP-AO also showed high selectivity for both uranium detection and separation which makes it a great promising for uranium monitoring in real water samples.

Abstract
Nanozymes are nanomaterials with enzyme-mimetic activity. It is known that DNA can interact with various nanozymes in different ways, enhancing or inhibiting the activity of nanozymes, which can be used to develop various biosensors. In this work, we synthesized a photosensitive covalent-organic framework (Tph-BT) as a nanozyme, and its oxidase and peroxidase activities could be reversely regulated by surface modification of single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) for the colorimetric detection of UO22+. Tph-BT exhibits excellent oxidase activity and weak peroxidase activity, and it is surprising to find that the UO22+-specific DNA aptamer can significantly inhibit the oxidase activity while greatly enhancing the peroxidase activity. The present UO22+ interacts with the DNA aptamer to form secondary structures and detaches from the surface of Tph-BT, thereby restoring the enzymatic activity of Tph-BT. Based on the reversed regulation effects of the DNA aptamer on the two types of enzymatic activities of Tph-BT, a novel "off-on" and "on-off" sensing platform can be constructed for the colorimetric analysis of UO22+. This research demonstrates that ssDNA can effectively regulate the different types of enzymatic activities of single COFs and achieve the sensitive and selective colorimetric analysis of radionuclides by the naked eye.

Abstract
Palladium is a key element in fuel cells, electronic industries, and organic catalysis. At the same time, chromium is essential in leather, electroplating, and metallurgical industries. However, their unpremeditated leakage into aquatic systems has caused human health and environmental apprehensions. Herein, we reported the development of an sp2 carbon-conjugated fluorescent covalent organic framework with a guanidine moiety (sp2 c-gCOF) that showed excellent thermal and chemical stability. The sp2 c-gCOF showed effective sensing, capture, and recovery/removal of Pd(II) and Cr(VI) ions, which could be due to the highly accessible pore walls decorated with guanidine moieties. The fluorescent sp2 c-gCOF showed higher selectivity for Pd(II) and Cr(VI) ions, with an ultra-low detection limit of 2.7 and 3.2 nM, respectively. The analysis of the adsorption properties with a pseudo-second-order kinetic model showed that sp2 c-gCOF could successfully and selectively remove both Pd(II) and Cr(VI) ions from aqueous solutions. The polymer also showed excellent capture efficacy even after seven consecutive adsorption-desorption cycles. Hence, this study reveals the potential of fluorescent sp2 c-gCOF for detecting, removing, and recovering valuable metals and hazardous ions from wastewater, which would be useful for economic benefit, environmental safety, human health, and sustainability. The post-synthetic modification of sp2 c-COF with suitable functionalities could also be useful for sensing and extracting other water pollutants and valuable materials from an aqueous system.

Abstract
sp2 carbon-conjugated covalent organic frameworks (sp2c-COFs) with superb in-plane π-conjugations, high chemical stability, and robust framework structure are expected to be ideal films/membranes for a wide range of applications including energy-related devices and optoelectronics. However, so far, sp2c-COFs have been mainly limited to microcrystalline powders, and this consequently hampered their performances in devices. Herein, we report a simple and robust methodology to fabricate large-area, free-standing, and crystalline sp2c-COF films (TFPT-TMT and TB-TMT) on various solid substrates (e.g., fluorine-doped tin oxide, aluminum sheet, polyacrylonitrile membrane) by self-assembly monolayer-assisted surface-initiated Schiff-base-mediated aldol polycondensation (namely, SI-SBMAP). The resultant sp2c-COF films show lateral sizes up to 120 cm2 and tunable thickness from tens of nanometers to a few micrometers. Owing to the robust framework and highly ordered quasi-1D channels, the sp2c-COF membrane-based osmotic power generator presents an output power density of 14.1 W m-2 under harsh conditions, outperforming most reported COF membranes as well as commercialized benchmark devices (5 W m-2). This work demonstrates a simple and robust interfacial methodology for the fabrication of sp2c-COF films/membranes for green energy applications and potential optoelectronics.

Abstract
Water pollution is a growing threat to humanity due to the pervasiveness of contaminants in water bodies. Significant efforts have been made to separate these hazardous components to purify polluted water through various methods. However, conventional remediation methods suffer from limitations such as low uptake capacity or selectivity, and current water quality standards cannot be met. Recently, advanced porous materials (APMs) have shown promise in improved segregation of contaminants compared to traditional porous materials in uptake capacity and selectivity. These materials feature merits of high surface area and versatile functionality, rendering them ideal platforms for the design of novel adsorbents. This Review summarizes the development and employment of APMs in a variety of water treatments accompanied by assessments of task-specific adsorption performance. Finally, we discuss our perspectives on future opportunities for APMs in water purification.

Abstract
It has been considered challenging to develop ideal adsorbents for efficient and lower adsorption time uranium extraction, especially 3D covalent organic frameworks with interpenetrating topologies and tunable porous structures. Here, a "soft" three-dimensional (3D) covalent organic framework (TAM-DHBD) with a fivefold interpenetrating structure is prepared as a novel porous platform for the efficient extraction of radioactive uranium. The resultant TAM-DHBD appears exceptional crystallinity, prominent porosity and excellent chemical stability. Based on the strong mutual coordination between phenolic-hydroxyl/imine-N on the main chain and uranium, TAM-DHBD can effectively avert the competition of other ions, showing high selectivity for uranium extraction. Impressively, the 3D ultra-hydrophilic transport channels and multi-directional uniform pore structure of TAM-DHBD lay the foundation for the ultra-high-speed diffusion of uranium (the adsorption equilibrium can be reached within 60 min under a high-concentration environment). Furthermore, the utilization of lightweight structure not only increases the adsorption site density, but renders the adsorption process flexible, achieving a breakthrough adsorption capacity of 1263.8 mg g-1. This work not only highlights new opportunities for designing microporous 3D COFs, but paves the way for the practical application of 3D COFs for uranium adsorption.

Abstract
The efficient and selective photocatalytic CO2 conversion into higher-valued hydrocarbon products (e.g., methane and ethane) over covalent organic frameworks (COFs) remains a challenge, with all previously reported attempts producing carbon monoxide as the dominant product. Herein, we report a new ethene-based COF, through polycondensation of electron-rich (E)-1,2‑diphenylethene and 1,3,6,8‑tetraphenylpyrene units. The synthesized ethene-based COF functioned as an efficient metal-free photocatalyst for the conversion of CO2 into methane under visible light irradiation, with a selectivity of 100 %, a production rate of 14.7 µmol g-1h-1, and an apparent quantum yield of c.a. 0.99 % at 489.5 nm, which are the most promising values reported for CO2 conversion by a metal-free COF photocatalyst, without any support from a co-catalyst. The carbon origin of CH4 product is confirmed by isotope tracer 13CO2 experiment. Moreover, the photocatalytic system consistently produces methane for > 14 h with recyclability.

Abstract
Uranium is one of the most important strategic resources for the development of the nuclear industry, but its unintended release has created potential environmental and health risks. It is highly desired to explore new methods that enable concurrent uranium monitoring and recovery for environmental protection and sustainable development of the nuclear industry. Here, for the first time, an imidazole fluorescent covalent organic framework (named PyTT-Tp) with ultrastable skeleton and open nanopore channel is synthesized by condensing ammonium acetate, 1,3,5-triformylphloroglucinol and pyrene-4,5,9,10-tetrone. By precisely tailoring complexing ligands, PyTT-Tp shows an excellent uranium recovery capacity of 941.27 mg g-1 and reached equilibrium within 60 min, which can be attributed to dense selective uranium binding sites on the highly accessible open skeleton. In addition, due to the signal amplification of the pyrene-imidazole skeleton, it has an ultra-low detection limit of 4.92 nM UO22+ and an ultra-fast response time (2 s) suitable for on-site monitoring the uranium content of the extracted water. By modulating target complexing ligands, this approach can be extended to the monitoring and recovery of other strategic nuclides.

Abstract
Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) represent an emerging class of organic photocatalysts. However, their complicated structures lead to indeterminacy about photocatalytic active sites and reaction mechanisms. Herein, we use reticular chemistry to construct a family of isoreticular crystalline hydrazide-based COF photocatalysts, with the optoelectronic properties and local pore characteristics of the COFs modulated using different linkers. The excited state electronic distribution and transport pathways in the COFs are probed using a host of experimental methods and theoretical calculations at a molecular level. One of our developed COFs (denoted as COF-4) exhibits a remarkable excited state electron utilization efficiency and charge transfer properties, achieving a record-high photocatalytic uranium extraction performance of ~6.84 mg/g/day in natural seawater among all techniques reported so far. This study brings a new understanding about the operation of COF-based photocatalysts, guiding the design of improved COF photocatalysts for many applications.

Abstract
In this study, a composite hydrogel with a low swelling ratio, excellent mechanical properties, and good U (VI) adsorption capacity was developed by incorporating a metal-organic framework (MOF) with a poly (acrylamide-co-acrylic acid)/chitosan (P(AM-co-AA)/CS) composite. The CS chain, which contains NH2, reduces the swelling ratio of the hydrogel to 4.17 after 5 h of immersion in water. The coordinate bond between the MOF and carboxyl group on the surface of P(AM-co-AA)/CS improves the mechanical properties and stability of P(AM-co-AA)/CS. The U(VI) adsorption capacity of P(AM-co-AA)/CS/MOF-808 is 159.56 mg g-1 at C0 = 99.47 mg L-1 and pH = 8.0. The adsorption process is well fitted by the Langmuir isotherm and pseudo-second-order model. The P(AM-co-AA)/CS/MOF-808 also exhibits good repeatability and stability after five adsorption-desorption cycles. The uranium adsorption capacity of the developed adsorbent after one month in natural seawater is 6.2 mg g-1, and the rate of uranium adsorption on the hydrogel is 0.21 mg g-1 day-1.

Abstract
Photocatalytic hydrogen (H2 ) evolution represents a promising and sustainable technology. Covalent organic frameworks (COFs)-based photocatalysts have received growing attention. A 2D fully conjugated ethylene-linked COF (BTT-BPy-COF) was fabricated with a dedicated designed active site. The introduced bipyridine sites enable a facile post-protonation strategy to fine-tune the actives sites, which results in a largely improved charge-separation efficiency and increased hydrophilicity in the pore channels synergically. After modulating the degree of protonation, the optimal BTT-BPy-PCOF exhibits a remarkable H2 evolution rate of 15.8 mmol g-1 h-1 under visible light, which surpasses the biphenyl-based COF 6 times. By using different types of acids, the post-protonation is proved to be a potential universal strategy for promoting photocatalytic H2 evolution. This strategy would provide important guidance for the design of highly efficient organic semiconductor photocatalysts.

Abstract
Membrane technology has shown a viable potential in conversion of liquid-waste or high-salt streams to fresh waters and resources. However, the non-adjustability pore size of traditional membranes limits the application of ion capture due to their low selectivity for target ions. Recently, covalent organic frameworks (COFs) have become a promising candidate for construction of advanced ion separation membranes for ion resource recovery due to their low density, large surface area, tunable channel structure, and tailored functionality. This tutorial review aims to analyze and summarize the progress in understanding ion capture mechanisms, preparation processes, and applications of COF-based membranes. First, the design principles for target ion selectivity are illustrated in terms of theoretical simulation of ions transport in COFs, and key properties for ion selectivity of COFs and COF-based membranes. Next, the fabrication methods of diverse COF-based membranes are classified into pure COF membranes, COF continuous membranes, and COF mixed matrix membranes. Finally, current applications of COF-based membranes are highlighted: desalination, extraction, removal of toxic metal ions, radionuclides and lithium, and acid recovery. This review presents promising approaches for design, preparation, and application of COF-based membranes in ion selectivity for recovery of ionic resources.

Abstract
Highly fluorescent covalent organic frameworks (COFs) are rarely obtained because of the π-π stacked layers with aggregation-caused quenching behavior. Unarguably, highly fluorescent COFs with tunable emission colors are even more rarely achieved. Herein, a general strategy to modify the classical COF material (named COF-1) by different fluorescent molecules via N → B interaction was developed. In this method, the boron-containing COF-1 acted as a porous and crystalline matrix as well as a reaction partner of Lewis acid; after interacting with fluorescent molecules with the anchoring group of pyridine (Lewis base), COF-1 takes a gorgeous transfiguration from a non-emissive powder into a highly fluorescent COF material with tunable emission colors. This disclosed method endowed the typical COFs with new emissive life and is speculated with the general research concept for all boron-containing COFs. Benefiting from the prominent fluorescent emission in the aggregation state, sensitive probes toward amines are achieved.

Abstract
The application of three-dimensional (3D) covalent organic frameworks (COFs) in renewable energy fields is greatly limited due to their non-conjugated skeletons. Here, we design and successfully synthesize a thiophene-enriched fully conjugated 3D COF (BUCT-COF-11) through an all-thiophene-linked saddle-shaped building block (COThTh-CHO). The BUCT-COF-11 exhibits excellent semiconducting property with intrinsic metal-free oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) activity. Using the COF as cathode catalyst, the assembled anion-exchange membrane fuel cells (AEMFCs) exhibited a high peak power density up to 493 mW cm-2 . DFT calculations reveal that thiophene introduction in the COF not only improves the conductivity but also optimizes the electronic structure of the sample, which therefore boosts the ORR performance. This is the first report on the application of COFs as metal-free catalysts in fuel cells, demonstrating the great potential of fully conjugated 3D COFs as promising semiconductors in energy fields.

Abstract
It is crucial to design efficient adsorbents for uranium from natural seawater with wide adaptability, effectiveness, and environmental safety. Porous organic polymers (POPs) provide superb tunable porosity and stability among developed porous materials. In this work, two new POPs, i.e., HCCP-P5-1 and HCCP-P5-2 were rationally designed and constructed by linked with macrocyclic pillar[5]arene as the monomer and hexachlorophosphate as the core via a macrocycle-to-framework strategy. Both pillar[5]arene-containing POPs exhibited high uranium adsorption capacity compared with previously reported macrocycle-free counterparts. The isothermal adsorption curves and kinetic studies showed that the adsorption of POPs on uranium was consistent with the Langmuir model and the pseudo-second-order kinetic model. Especially, HCCP-P5-1 has reached 537.81 mg/g, which is greater than most POPs that have been reported. Meanwhile, the comparison between both HCCP-P5-1 and HCCP-P5-2 can illustrate that the adsorption capacity and stability could be adjusted by the monomer ratio. This work provides a new idea for the design and construction of uranium adsorbents from macrocycle-derived POPs.
