Abstract
Developing novel porous adsorbents for efficient wastewater treatment is significant to the environment protection. Herein, three porous polycalix[n]arenes (n = 4, 6, and 8) which had varying cavity sizes of the macrocycle (Azo-CX4P, Azo-CX6P, and Azo-CX8P) were prepared under mild conditions and tested for their potential application in water purification. Azo-CX8P with a larger cavity size of the macrocycle outperformed Azo-CX4P and Azo-CX6P in screening studies involving a range of organic micropollutants. It was proved that Azo-CX8P was especially efficient in the removal of cationic dyes because of its high negative surface charge. In terms of the adsorption of Rhodamine B with Azo-CX8P, the pseudo-second-order rate constant reaches 5.025 g·mg-1·min-1 with the maximum adsorption capacity being 1345 mg·g-1. These values are significantly higher compared with those recorded for most adsorbents. In addition, the easily prepared Azo-CX8P can be reused at least six times without a loss of the adsorption efficiency, demonstrating its potential use in water purification.

Abstract
Herein, an enhanced electrochemiluminescence (ECL) aptasensor driven by a complex (T4PPVB-COP@CdS QDs) with large specific surface area and high stability was constructed for highly sensitive detection of chlorpyrifos (CPF), using electrostatic interactions and signal amplification techniques. In the presence of CPF, the specific binding between the aptamer and CPF caused partial detachment of the aptamer from the sensor, thus restoring the ECL signal. Notably, gold nanoparticles functionalized with streptavidin (SA) as signal enhancers further amplified the ECL signal in specific interactions with aptamers, thereby improving the sensitivity of the assay. Based on this, the proposed ECL aptasensor demonstrated significant detection performance for CPF with a linear range of 1-107 pg/mL and a LOD of 0.34 pg/mL. Furthermore, the feasibility of the ECL aptasensor was validated by the detection and analysis of CPF in real samples, which also provided a broad reference value for bioanalysis.

Abstract
Developing efficient adsorbent materials for iodine scavenging is essential to mitigate the threat of radioactive iodine causing adverse effects on human health and the environment. In this context, we explored N-rich two-dimensional covalent organic frameworks (COFs) with diverse functionalities for iodine capture. The pyridyl-hydroxyl-functionalized triazine-based novel 5,5',5″-(1,3,5-triazine-2,4,6-triyl)tris(pyridine-2-amine) (TTPA)-COF possesses high crystallinity (crystalline domain size: 24.4 ± 0.6 nm) and high porosity (specific BET surface area: 1000 ± 90 m2 g-1). TTPA-COF exhibits superior vapor-phase iodine adsorption (4.43 ± 0.01 g g-1) compared to analogous COF devoid of pyridinic moieties, 2,4,6-tris(4-aminophenyl)-1,3,5-triazine (TAPT)-COF. The high iodine capture by TTPA-COF is due to the enhanced binding affinity conferred by the extra pyridinic active sites. Furthermore, the crucial role of long-range order in porous adsorbents has been experimentally evidenced by comparing the performance of iodine vapor capture of TTPA-COF with an amorphous network polymer having identical functionalities. We have also demonstrated the high iodine scavenging ability of TTPA-COF from the organic and aqueous phases. The mechanism of iodine adsorption by the heteroatom-rich framework is elucidated through FTIR, XPS, and Raman spectral analyses. The present study highlights the need for structural tweaking of the building blocks toward the rational construction of advanced functional porous materials for a task-specific application.

Abstract
Efficient enzyme immobilization is crucial for the successful commercialization of large-scale enzymatic water treatment. However, issues such as lack of high enzyme loading coupled with enzyme leaching present challenges for the widespread adoption of immobilized enzyme systems. The present study describes the development and bioremediation application of an enzyme biocomposite employing a cationic macrocycle-based covalent organic framework (COF) with hierarchical porosity for the immobilization of horseradish peroxidase (HRP). The intrinsic hierarchical porous features of the azacalix[4]arene-based COF (ACA-COF) allowed for a maximum HRP loading capacity of 0.76 mg/mg COF with low enzyme leaching (<5.0 %). The biocomposite, HRP@ACA-COF, exhibited exceptional thermal stability (∼200 % higher relative activity than the free enzyme), and maintained ∼60 % enzyme activity after five cycles. LCMSMS analyses confirmed that the HRP@ACA-COF system was able to achieve > 99 % degradation of seven diverse types of emerging pollutants (2-mercaptobenzothiazole, paracetamol, caffeic acid, methylparaben, furosemide, sulfamethoxazole, and salicylic acid)in under an hour. The described enzyme-COF system offers promise for efficient wastewater bioremediation applications.

Abstract
Lithium isotope separation has attracted extensive interest due to its important role in fusion and fission reactions. Up to now, it is still a great challenge to separate lithium isotopes (6Li and 7Li) in an efficient manner due to the low capture ability for lithium ions of related materials and highly similar physicochemical properties between lithium isotopes. In this work, three calix[4]arene-decorated crystalline covalent organic frameworks (COFs) with wave-like extension and AA-stacking configuration were designed and utilized for lithium adsorption and its isotope separation. Experimental studies show that these COFs exhibit an outstanding lithium adsorption capacity up to 94.66 mg·g-1, which is about 2 times beyond that of adsorbents reported in the literature. The high adsorption capacity of COFs could be attributed to the abundant adsorption sites from calix[4]arene unit. More importantly, this study demonstrates for the first time that calixarene groups can separate lithium isotopes with an excellent separation factor up to 1.053 ± 0.002, comparable to the most successful solid-phase lithium separation adsorbent. The calculation based on density functional theory showed that calixarene played an important role in the lithium adsorption. Interestingly, the lithium isotope separation performance is mainly affected by the amine bridging units. This work demonstrated that calixarene COFs are promising adsorbents for lithium isotope separation.

Abstract
Radioactive iodine (129I and 131I), produced or released from nuclear-related activities, posed severe effects on both human health and environment. The efficient removal of radioiodine from aqueous medium and vapor phase is of paramount importance for the sustainable development of nuclear energy. Herein, a metal-organic framework (MOF) nanosheet with a positive charge was constructed for the capture of iodine for the first time. The as-synthesized ultrathin nanosheets, with a thickness of 4.4 ± 0.1 nm, showed a record-high iodine adsorption capacity (3704.08 mg g-1) from aqueous solution, which is even higher than that from the vapor phase (3510.05 mg g-1). It can be ascribed to the fully interactions between the extensive accessible active sites on the largely exposed surface of 2D MOF nanosheets and the target pollutants, which also gave rise to fast adsorption kinetics with relative high removal efficiencies in the low concentrations, even in seawater. Moreover, a facile recyclability with fast desorption kinetics can also be achieved for the MOF nanosheets. The excellent iodine removal performance in aqueous solution demonstrated that the electrostatic attraction between MOF nanosheets with a positive charge and the negatively charged triiodide (I3-, the dominant form of iodine in aqueous solution) is the driving force in adsorption, which endows the adsorbents with the characteristics of fast adsorption and desorption kinetics. The adsorption mechanism was systematically verified by the studies of ζ potential, Fourier transform infrared, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and Raman spectra.

Abstract
Poor ionic conductivity of the catalyst-binding, sub-micrometer-thick ionomer layers in energy conversion and storage devices is a huge challenge. However, ionomers are rarely designed keeping in mind the specific issues associated with nanoconfinement. Here, we designed nature-inspired ionomers (calix-2) having hollow, macrocyclic, calix[4]arene-based repeat units with precise, sub-nanometer diameter. In ≤100 nm-thick films, the in-plane proton conductivity of calix-2 was up to 8 times higher than the current benchmark ionomer Nafion at 85% relative humidity (RH), while it was 1-2 orders of magnitude higher than Nafion at 20-25% RH. Confocal laser scanning microscopy and other synthetic techniques allowed us to demonstrate the role of macrocyclic cavities in boosting the proton conductivity. The systematic self-assembly of calix-2 chains into ellipsoids in thin films was evidenced from atomic force microscopy and grazing incidence small-angle X-ray scattering measurements. Moreover, the likelihood of alignment and stacking of macrocyclic units, the presence of one-dimensional water wires across this macrocycle stacks, and thus the formation of long-range proton conduction pathways were suggested by atomistic simulations. We not only did see an unprecedented improvement in thin-film proton conductivity but also saw an improvement in proton conductivity of bulk membranes when calix-2 was added to the Nafion matrices. Nafion-calix-2 composite membranes also took advantage of the asymmetric charge distribution across calix[4]arene repeat units collectively and exhibited voltage-gating behavior. The inclusion of molecular macrocyclic cavities into the ionomer chemical structure can thus emerge as a promising design concept for highly efficient ion-conducting and ion-permselective materials for sustainable energy applications.

Abstract
With the rapid development of materials science, porous organic polymers (POPs) have received remarkable attentions because of their unique properties such as the exceptionally high surface area and flexible molecular design. The ability to incorporate specific functions in a precise manner makes POPs promising platforms for a myriad of applications in molecular adsorption, separation, and catalysis. Therefore, many different types of POPs have been rationally designed and synthesized to expand the scope of advanced materials, endowing them with distinct structures and properties. Recently, supramolecular macrocycles with excellent host-guest complexation abilities are emerging as powerful crosslinkers for developing novel POPs with hierarchical structures and improved performance, which can be well-organized at different spatial scales. Macrocycle-based POPs could have unusual porous, adsorptive, and optical properties when compared to their nonmacrocycle-incorporated counterparts. This cooperation provides valuable insights for the molecular-level understanding of skeletal complexity and diversity. Here, the research advances of macrocycle-based POPs are aptly summarized by showing their syntheses, properties, and applications in terms of separation, sensing, and catalysis. Finally, the current challenging issues in this exciting research field are delineated and a comprehensive outlook is offered for their future directions.

Abstract
Porous organic polymers (POPs), as a new category of advanced porous materials, have received broad research interests owing to the advantages of light-weight, robust scaffolds, high specific surface areas and good functional tailorability. According to the long-range ordering of polymer skeletons, POPs can be either crystalline or amorphous. Macrocycles with inherent cavities can serve as receptors for recognizing or capturing specific guest molecules through host-guest interactions. Incorporating macrocycles in POP skeletons affords win-win merits, e.g. hierarchical porosity and novel physicochemical properties. In this review, we focus on the recent progress associated with new architectures of macrocycle-based POPs. Herein, these macrocycles are divided into two subclasses: non-planar (crown ether, calixarene, pillararene, cyclodextrin, cyclotricatechylene, etc.) and planar (arylene-ethynylene macrocycles). We summarize the synthetic methods of each macrocyclic POP in terms of the functions of versatile building blocks. Subsequently, we discuss the performance of macrocyclic POPs in environmental remediation, gas adsorption, heterogeneous catalysis, fluorescence sensing and ionic conduction. Although considerable examples are reported, the development of macrocyclic POPs is still in its infancy. Finally, we propose the underlying challenges and opportunities of macrocycle-based POPs.

Abstract
A task-specific design of biodegradable and processable porous polymers is one of the primary requisite for their efficient day-to-day use to minimize polymer waste. Herein, a surfactant (or additive)-free method is reported for the synthesis of a processable and degradable aliphatic open-pore porous polyelectrolyte monolith for the removal of gaseous pollutants such as iodine and CO2. This is achieved via a colloidal templating method. In the 1st stage, cationic colloidal nanoparticles containing reactive amines and acrylamide groups were formed via the phase separation of hyperbranched polyaminoamides in water (sol). These cationic nanoparticles (which acted as both templates and macromers) further reacted to form a gel, which upon freeze-drying leads to the formation of a polymer monolith with an open-pore porous morphology and hierarchical porosity throughout its structure. During gelation, the shape of the monolith can be controlled using suitable templates and a similar strategy was used to prepare porous thin films. The monolith has shown excellent iodine adsorption ability (5000 mg g-1 in the vapor phase and 2663 mg g-1 in the solution phase) with good reusability and CO2 adsorption ability (60 mg g-1), with CO2/CH4 and CO2/N2 selectivities of 18.5 and 6.7, respectively. The degradability of the materials was studied in detail at different pH, confirming their easy degradability in aqueous solutions and a higher degradability at basic pH.

Abstract
![]()
Following the advancements
and diversification in synthetic strategies
for porous covalent materials in the literature, the materials science
community started to investigate the performance of covalent organic
polymers (COPs) and covalent organic frameworks (COFs) in applications
that require large surface areas for interaction with other molecules,
chemical stability, and insolubility. Sensorics is an area where COPs
and COFs have demonstrated immense potential and achieved high levels
of sensitivity and selectivity on account of their tunable structures.
In this review, we focus on those covalent polymeric systems that
use fluorescence spectroscopy as a method of detection. After briefly
reviewing the physical basis of fluorescence-based sensors, we delve
into various kinds of analytes that have been explored with COPs and
COFs, namely, heavy metal ions, explosives, biological molecules,
amines, pH, volatile organic compounds and solvents, iodine, enantiomers,
gases, and anions. Throughout this work, we discuss the mechanisms
involved in each sensing application and aim to quantify the potency
of the discussed sensors by providing limits of detection and quenching
constants when available. This review concludes with a summary of
the surveyed literature and raises a few concerns that should be addressed
in the future development of COP and COF fluorescence-based sensors.

Abstract
A new and innovative class of calixarene-based polymers emerged as adsorbents for a variety of compounds and ions in solution and vapor media. These materials take advantage of the modifiable rims and hydrophobic cavities of the calixarene monomers, in addition to the porous nature of the polymeric matrix. With main-chain calixarenes' function as supramolecular hosts and the polymers' high surface areas, polycalixarenes can effectively encapsulate target analytes. This feature is particularly useful for environmental remediation as dangerous and toxic molecules reversibly bind to the macrocyclic cavity, which facilitates their removal and enables repeated use of the polymeric sorbent. This Spotlight touches on the unique characteristics of the calixarene monomers and discusses the synthetic methods of our reported calixarene-based porous polymers, including Sonogashira-Hagihara coupling, and diazo and imine bond formation. It then discusses the promising applications of these materials in adsorbing dyes, micropollutants, iodine, mercury, paraquat, and perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) from water. In most cases, these reports cover materials that outperform others in terms of recyclability, rates of adsorption, or uptake capacities of specific pollutants. Finally, this Spotlight addresses the current challenges and future aspects of utilizing porous polymers in pollution treatment.

Abstract
Effective capture of pollutants from wastewater is crucial for protecting the environment and human health. An azo-based porous organic polymer (AzoPPOP) containing porphyrin and inorganics cage polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane units was synthesized via a catalyst-free coupling reaction. Results showed that AzoPPOP possess a high surface area, a hierarchically porous structure, good thermal stability, abundant adsorption sites, and an electronegative nature. Based on these properties, AzoPPOP had an extremely high adsorption capacity (1357.58 mg g-1) for RhB, a fast adsorption rate, and good selectivity. Study of the mechanism revealed that in addition to electrostatic interactions, the high specific surface area, existence of -NH2, and the strong π-π interaction between AzoPPOP and RhB also play important roles for the adsorption of RhB. AzoPPOP also displayed excellent adsorption properties for heavy metal ions (230.45, 192.24 and 162.11 mg g-1 for Ag+, Hg2+, and Pb2+, respectively). More importantly, simulation of the purification experiment of waste water and the recycling regeneration experiment revealed that AzoPPOP has good high-level recyclability and could remove multi-pollutants in one pass through a simple adsorption column.

Abstract
The combination of supramolecular chemistry and polymer sciences creates a great possibility to afford calixarene-based polymers offering unique features and applications. The enhancement of calixarene's versatility in this manner has made chemists better able to achieve different objectives in host-guest chemistry. The calixarene-based polymers can be divided into covalent polymers and supramolecular polymers regarding the interactions. Although there are several studies available on the calixarene-based supramolecular polymers, there is a paucity of studies on the calixarene-based covalent polymers. In this paper, the most recent developments and applications of the calixarene-based covalent polymers in the last two decades have been reviewed. We have particularly focused on the polymers, including those where the calixarene molecules have been used as macromonomers and polymerize through covalent bonds. Moreover, covalent polymers or solid supports functionalized with calixarenes are highlighted as well.

Abstract
Two kinds of fluorescent conjugated microporous polymers containing pyrazine moieties were prepared by the polymerization reaction of 2,5-di-triphenylamine-yl-pyrazine (DTPAPz) and N,N,N',N'-tetrapheny-2,5-(diazyl) pyrazine (TDPz) with 2,4,6-trichloro-1,3,5-triazine (TCT) through Friedel-Crafts reaction using the methanesulfonic acid as a catalysts. Both CMPs have high thermal stability and decomposition temperature reaches above 596 and 248 °C under nitrogen atmosphere, respectively. By right of porous morphology and electron-donating nitrogen, as well as electron-rich π-conjugated structures, the adsorption performance for iodine vapor on the CMPs is very excellent, which can reach 441% and 312%. In addition, fluorescence studies showed that the two CMPs exhibited high fluorescence sensitivity to electron-deficient iodine, o-nitrophenol (o-NP), and picric acid (PA) via fluorescence quenching.

Abstract
A viologen-based porous organic polymer, POP-V-VI, was designed and synthesized by a facile nucleophilic substitution between cyanuric chloride and 1,2-bis(4-pyridinium) ethylene. Together with the reported POP-V-BPY with a similar structure, these viologen-based porous organic polymers bear high charge density, phenyl ring and nitrogenous affinity sites, which endow them with excellent iodine vapor uptake capacity (4860 mg g-1 for POP-V-VI and 4200 mg g-1 for POP-V-BPY) and remarkably high adsorption capacity for pyridine (4470 mg g-1 for POP-V-VI and 8880 mg g-1 for POP-V-BPY) and other aliphatic amines. POP-V-VI and POP-V-BPY could be efficiently recycled and reused three times without significant loss of iodine vapor uptake. All these results demonstrate that POP-V-VI and POP-V-BPY are promising adsorbents for practical applications in portable devices such as gas masks.

Abstract
The presence of carcinogenic bromate (BrO3−) in drinking water became a global concern and efforts towards its removal mainly focused on addressing the source. Herein, we rationally designed a porphyrin-based covalent organic framework (PV-COF) with a cationic surface to provide electrostatic interactions and a porphyrin core to induce hydrogen bonding interactions for the efficient removal of BrO3− from water. Through H-bonding and electrostatic interactions, PV-COF exhibited an exceptional bromate removal efficiency (maximum adsorption capacity, Qmax: 203.8 mg g−1) with the fastest uptake rate (kads) of 191.45 g mg−1 min−1. The bromate concentration was reduced to far below the allowed concentration in drinking water (10 ppb) within 20 minutes. We studied the relationship between bromate adsorption and COF surface modification by metalation of the porphyrinic core or neutralization of the viologen linkers by chemical reduction. The bromate adsorption mechanism was studied by EDAX mapping and molecular simulations, and it was found that ion exchange and hydrogen bonding formation drive the adsorption. Importantly, PV-COF could be easily recycled several times without compromising its adsorption efficiency. A cationic COF removes carcinogenic bromate with a remarkable rate constant of 191.45 g mg−1 min−1.![]()

Abstract
The two-dimensional (2D) nanostructures comprised of polyoxometalate based building blocks are of great value in nanoarchitectures, which have unique properties and widespread potential applications, but it is still challenging in mature preparation. Herein a new strategy to build Cr(III) centered Anderson type polyoxometalate 2D nanostructures based on the modulation of host-guest interaction between cationic pillar[5]arenes and sodium dodecyl sulfonate (SDS) in aqueous media was exploited in this work. Through regulating stoichiometry of SDS, the morphology of assemblies vary from nanobones to 2D nanosheets. The fine assembled structure was discovered by combined 1H NMR, SAXS, and element analyses. The nanomaterials can be used as adsorbents for I2 in various solutions, including n-hexane, cyclohexane, water, and chloroform, where the polyoxometalates play a key role in the effective adsorption of iodine since they can expand the interspace between pillar[5]arenes in the as-prepared nanostructure. Furthermore, such adsorbents are easily regenerated and reused as iodine can be released spontaneously from nanobones@I2 and nanosheets@I2 solids when being immersed in dimethyl sulfoxide.

Abstract
Dicationic quaternary salts of 4,4'-bipyridine, also referred to as the viologen family, are well-known for their interesting redox chemistry, whereby they can be reversibly reduced into radical cationic and neutral moieties. Because of this ability to switch between different redox states, viologens have frequently been incorporated into covalent organic polymers (COPs) as molecular switches to construct stimuli-responsive materials. Although many viologen-based COPs have been reported, hyper-conjugated insoluble COPs started to emerge fairly recently and have not been comprehensively reviewed. In this review, we investigate the design strategies employed in the synthesis of insoluble viologen-based COPs, which can be broadly classified as those with viologen in the backbone and those with viologen as pendant groups. Chemical reactions used in the synthesis of each category, including Sonogashira-Hagihara cross-coupling, Menshutkin and Zincke reactions, are highlighted. Diverse applications of these COPs are discussed with particular reference to the redox state of viologen in each material. Uses of these materials for gas adsorption, organic and inorganic pollutant removal, catalysis, sensing and film fabrication are explored.
