Abstract
Fabricating COFs-based electrocatalysts with high stability and conductivity still remains a great challenge. Herein, 2D polyimide-linked phthalocyanine COF (denoted as NiPc-OH-COF) is constructed via solvothermal reaction between tetraanhydrides of 2,3,9,10,16,17,23,24-octacarboxyphthalocyaninato nickel(II) and 2,5-diamino-1,4-benzenediol (DB) with other two analogous 2D COFs (denoted as NiPc-OMe-COF and NiPc-H-COF) synthesized for reference. In comparison with NiPc-OMe-COF and NiPc-H-COF, NiPc-OH-COF exhibits enhanced stability, particularly in strong NaOH solvent and high conductivity of 1.5 × 10-3 S m-1 due to the incorporation of additional strong interlayer hydrogen bonding interaction between the O-H of DB and the hydroxy "O" atom of DB in adjacent layers. This in turn endows the NiPc-OH-COF electrode with ultrahigh CO2-to-CO faradaic efficiency (almost 100%) in a wide potential range from -0.7 to -1.1 V versus reversible hydrogen electrode (RHE), a large partial CO current density of -39.2 mA cm-2 at -1.1 V versus RHE, and high turnover number as well as turnover frequency, amounting to 45 000 and 0.76 S-1 at -0.80 V versus RHE during 12 h lasting measurement.

Abstract
The electrocatalytic reduction of CO2 to high-value fuels by renewable electricity is a sustainable strategy, which can substitute for fossil fuels and circumvent climate changes induced by elevated CO2 emission levels, making the rational design of versatile electrocatalysts highly desirable. Among all the electrocatalytic materials used in the CO2 reduction reaction, nickel phthalocyanine (NiPc)-based electrocatalysts have attracted considerable attention recently because of their high CO selectivity and catalytic activity. Herein, we review the latest advances in CO2 electroreduction to CO catalyzed by immobilized NiPc and its derivatives on diverse surfaces. Specific strategies, the structure-performance relationship and the CO2-to-CO reaction mechanism of these NiPc-based electrocatalysts are analyzed. Future opportunities and challenges for this series of powerful heterogeneous electrocatalysts are also highlighted.

Abstract
Employing covalent organic frameworks (COFs) for the photocatalytic CO2 reduction reaction (CDRR) to generate high-value chemical fuels and mitigate greenhouse gas emissions represents a sustainable catalytic conversion approach. However, achieving superior photocatalytic CDRR performance is hindered by the challenges of low charge separation efficiency, poor stability, and high preparation costs associated with COFs. Herein, in this work, we utilized perfluorinated metallophthalocyanine (MPcF16) and the organic biomolecule compound ellagic acid (EA) as building blocks to actualize functional covalent organic frameworks (COFs) named EPM-COF (M = Co, Ni, Cu). The designed EPCo-COF, featuring cobalt metal active sites, demonstrated an impressive CO production rate and selectivity in the photocatalytic CO2 reduction reaction (CDRR). Moreover, following alkaline treatment (EPCo-COF-AT), the COF exposed carboxylic acid anion (COO-) and hydroxyl group (OH), thereby enhancing the electron-donating capability of EA. This modification achieved a heightened CO production rate of 17.7 mmol g-1 h-1 with an outstanding CO selectivity of 97.8% in efficient photocatalytic CDRR. Theoretical calculations further illustrated that EPCo-COF-AT functionalized with COO- and OH can effectively alleviate the energy barriers involved in the CDRR process, which facilitates the proton-coupled electron transfer processes and enhances the photocatalytic performance on the cobalt active sites within EPCo-COF-AT.

Abstract
To mimic the carbon cycle at a kinetically rapid pace, the sustainable conversion of omnipresent CO2 to value-added chemical feedstock and hydrocarbon fuels implies a remarkable prototype for utilizing released CO2. Porous organic polymers (POPs) have been recognized as remarkable catalytic systems for achieving large-scale applicability in energy-driven processes. POPs offer mesoporous characteristics, higher surface area, and superior optoelectronic properties that lead to their relatively advanced activity and selectivity for CO2 conversion. In comparison to the metal organic frameworks, POPs exhibit an enhanced tendency toward membrane formation, which governs their excellent stability with regard to remarkable ultrathinness and tailored pore channels. The structural ascendancy of POPs can be effectively utilized to develop cost-effective catalytic supports for energy conversion processes to leapfrog over conventional noble metal catalysts that have nonlinear techno-economic equilibrium. Herein, we precisely surveyed the functionality of POPs from scratch, classified it, and provided a critical commentary of its current methodological advancements and photo/electrochemical achievements in the CO2 reduction reaction.

Abstract
π-Conjugated materials are highly attractive owing to their unique optical and electronic properties. Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) offer a great opportunity for precise arrangement of building units in a π-conjugated crystalline matrix and tuning of the properties through choice of functionalities or post-synthetic modification. With this review, we aim at summarizing both the most representative as well as emerging strategies for the synthesis of π-conjugated COFs. We give examples of direct synthesis using large, π-extended building blocks. COFs featuring fully conjugated linkages such as vinylene, pyrazine, and azole are discussed. Then, post-synthetic modification methods that result in the extension of the COF π-system are reviewed. Throughout, mechanistic insights are presented when available. In the context of their utilization as film devices, we conduct a concise survey of the prominent COF layer deposition techniques reported and their aptness for the deposition of fused aromatic systems.

Abstract
The conversion of carbon dioxide (CO2) into value-added chemicals with two or more carbons (C2+) is a promising strategy that cannot only mitigate anthropogenic CO2 emissions but also reduce the excessive dependence on fossil feedstocks. In recent years, atomically dispersed metal catalysts (ADCs), including single-atom catalysts (SACs), dual-atom catalysts (DACs), and single-cluster catalysts (SCCs), emerged as attractive candidates for CO2 fixation reactions due to their unique properties, such as the maximum utilization of active sites, tunable electronic structure, the efficient elucidation of catalytic mechanism, etc. This review provides an overview of significant progress in the synthesis and characterization of ADCs utilized in photocatalytic, electrocatalytic, and thermocatalytic conversion of CO2 toward high-value C2+ compounds. To provide insights for designing efficient ADCs toward the C2+ chemical synthesis originating from CO2, the key factors that influence the catalytic activity and selectivity are highlighted. Finally, the relevant challenges and opportunities are discussed to inspire new ideas for the generation of CO2-based C2+ products over ADCs.

Abstract
Two typical Cu-based complex catalysts with piperazine (PR) and p-phenylenediamine (pPDA) ligands were designed to elucidate whether the ligands can tailor the reduction behavior of the Cu species and thus modulate their electrochemical CO2 reduction reaction (eCO2RR) activity. Specifically, Cu-PR underwent a significant in situ transformation into Cu nanoparticles enriched with a Cuδ+/Cu0 interface for high eCO2RR activity, compared to Cu-pPDA. This finding reveals the importance of ligand engineering in modulating the eCO2RR performance of Cu-based complexes.

Abstract
Herein, we propose an oxygen-containing species coordination strategy to boost CO2 electroreduction in the presence of O2. A two-dimensional (2D) conjugated metal-covalent organic framework (MCOF), denoted as NiPc-Salen(Co)2-COF that is composed of the Ni-phthalocyanine (NiPc) unit with well-defined Ni-N4-O sites and the salen(Co)2 moiety with binuclear Co-N2O2 sites, is developed and synthesized for enhancing the CO2RR under aerobic condition. In the presence of O2, one of the Co sites in the NiPc-Salen(Co)2-COF that coordinated with the intermediate of *OOH from ORR could decrease the energy barrier of the activation of CO2 molecules and stabilize the key intermediate *COOH of the CO2RR over the adjacent Co center. Besides, the oxygen species axially coordinated Ni-N4-O sites can favor in reducing the energy barrier of the intermediate *COOH formation for the CO2RR. Thus, NiPc-Salen(Co)2-COF exhibits high oxygen-tolerant CO2RR performance and achieves outstanding CO Faradaic efficiency (FECO) of 97.2 % at -1.0 V vs. the reversible hydrogen electrode (RHE) and a high CO partial current density of 40.3 mA cm-2 at -1.1 V in the presence of 0.5 % O2, which is superior to that in pure CO2 feed gas (FECO=94.8 %, jCO=19.9 mA cm-2). Notably, the NiPc-Salen(Co)2-COF achieves an industrial-level current density of 128.3 mA cm-2 in the flow-cell reactor with 0.5 % O2 at -0.8 V, which is higher than that in pure CO2 atmosphere (jCO=104.8 mA cm-2). It is worth noting that an excellent FECO of 86.8 % is still achieved in the presence of 5 % O2 at -1.0 V. This work provides an effective strategy to enable the CO2RR under O2 atmosphere by utilizing the *OOH intermediates of ORR to boost CO2 electroreduction.

Abstract
Electrochemical CO2 reduction reaction (eCO2 RR) is a promising strategy to achieve carbon cycling by converting CO2 into value-added products under mild reaction conditions. Recently, single-atom catalysts (SACs) have shown enormous potential in eCO2 RR due to their high utilization of metal atoms and flexible coordination structures. In this work, the recent progress in SACs for eCO2 RR is outlined, with detailed discussions on the interaction between active sites and CO2 , especially the adsorption/activation behavior of CO2 and the effects of the electronic structure of SACs on eCO2 RR. Three perspectives form the starting point: 1) Important factors of SACs for eCO2 RR; 2) Typical SACs for eCO2 RR; 3) eCO2 RR toward valuable products. First, how different modification strategies can change the electronic structure of SACs to improve catalytic performance is discussed; Second, SACs with diverse supports and how supports assist active sites to undergo catalytic reaction are introduced; Finally, according to various valuable products from eCO2 RR, the reaction mechanism and measures which can be taken to improve the selectivity of eCO2 RR are discussed. Hopefully, this work can provide a comprehensive understanding of SACs for eCO2 RR and spark innovative design and modification ideas to develop highly efficient SACs for CO2 conversion to various valuable fuels/chemicals.

Abstract
Single-atom catalysts (SACs) have been investigated and applied to energy conversion devices. However, issues of metal agglomeration, low metal loading, and substrate stability have hindered realization of the SACs' full potential. Recently, covalent organic framework (COF)-based SACs have emerged as promising materials to enable highly efficient catalytic reactions. Here, we summarize the representative COF-based SACs and their wide application in clean energy devices and conversion reactions, such as hydrogen evolution reaction, carbon dioxide reduction reaction, nitrogen reduction reaction, oxygen reduction reaction, and oxygen evolution reaction. Based on their catalysis conditions, these reactions are categorized into photocatalyzed and electrocatalyzed reactions. We also summarize their design strategies, including heteroatom inclusion, donor-acceptor pairs, pore engineering, interface engineering, etc. Although COF-based SACs are promising, more efforts, such as linkage engineering, functional groups, ionization, multifunctional sites for cocatalyzed systems, etc., could improve them to be the ideal SAC materials. At the end, we provide our perspectives on where the field will proceed in the next 5 years.

Abstract
Cost-effective and high-efficiency catalysts play a central role in various sustainable electrochemical energy conversion technologies that are being developed to generate clean energy while reducing carbon emissions, such as fuel cells, metal-air batteries, water electrolyzers, and carbon dioxide conversion. In this context, a recent climax in the exploitation of advanced earth-abundant catalysts has been witnessed for diverse electrochemical reactions involved in the above mentioned sustainable pathways. In particular, polymer catalysts have garnered considerable interest and achieved substantial progress very recently, mainly owing to their pyrolysis-free synthesis, highly tunable molecular composition and microarchitecture, readily adjustable electrical conductivity, and high stability. In this review, we present a timely and comprehensive overview of the latest advances in organic polymers as emerging materials for powerful electrocatalysts. First, we present the general principles for the design of polymer catalysts in terms of catalytic activity, electrical conductivity, mass transfer, and stability. Then, the state-of-the-art engineering strategies to tailor the polymer catalysts at both molecular (i.e., heteroatom and metal atom engineering) and macromolecular (i.e., chain, topology, and composition engineering) levels are introduced. Particular attention is paid to the insightful understanding of structure-performance correlations and electrocatalytic mechanisms. The fundamentals behind these critical electrochemical reactions, including the oxygen reduction reaction, hydrogen evolution reaction, CO2 reduction reaction, oxygen evolution reaction, and hydrogen oxidation reaction, as well as breakthroughs in polymer catalysts, are outlined as well. Finally, we further discuss the current challenges and suggest new opportunities for the rational design of advanced polymer catalysts. By presenting the progress, engineering strategies, insightful understandings, challenges, and perspectives, we hope this review can provide valuable guidelines for the future development of polymer catalysts.

Abstract
Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) have great potential for photocatalytic CO2 reduction, owing to their adjustable structures, porous characteristics, and highly ordered nature. However, poor light absorption, fast recombination of photogenerated electron-hole pairs, and suboptimal coordination conditions have contributed to the hindered efficiency and selectivity observed in photocatalytic CO2 reduction processes. In this work, the integration of bromine (Br) atoms into COFs was achieved through the synthesis process involving nickel (II) tetraaminophthalocyanine (NiTAPc) and 3,6-dibromopyromellitic dianhydride (BPMDA) using a solvothermal approach. The coupling of a porous framework structure alongside the incorporation of Br atoms yields a significant enhancement in photoelectric properties compared to bromine-free COFs. Meanwhile, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and density functional theory (DFT) calculations revealed that the introduction of Br atoms can facilitate the adjustment of the electron configuration around the phthalocyanine unit and diminish the required energy for the photocatalytic reaction. When subjected to visible light irradiation, the NiTAPc-BPMDA COF showcased a CO yield of 148.25 μmol g-1 over a 5-hour period, accompanied by an impressive selectivity of 98%. This work highlights the collaborative influence of phthalocyanines and Br atoms within COF-based photocatalysts, offering an alternative approach for designing and constructing high-performance photocatalysts with elevated yield and selectivity. The synergistic role of phthalocyanines and Br atoms within the COF-based photocatalysts provides an alternative strategy for photocatalysts with high yield and selectivity in the future.

Abstract
A large-area COFTAPB-BPY film with a pore size of 3.9 nm was prepared on a gas-liquid interface by the virtue of the limiting and guiding functions of sodium dodecylbenzene sulfonate, followed by modification by Ni2+ ions with the reversible redox reaction of Ni(II/III), where Ni2+ was evidently anchored on the N in BPY. The obtained COFTAPB-BPY and Ni-COFTAPB-BPY nanofilms could avoid the inevitable aggregation and stacking of bulk COFTAPB-BPY, which facilitated a high specific capacitance of 0.26 mF cm-2 for the COFTAPB-BPY nanofilm and 0.38 mF cm-2 for the Ni-COFTAPB-BPY nanofilm at 0.001 mA cm-2. Considering the pseudocapacitance and double-layer capacitance traits of Ni-COFTAPB-BPY and COFTAPB-BPY nanofilms, the asymmetric Ni-COFTAPB-BPY//COFTAPB-BPY film supercapacitor was assembled with a symmetric COFTAPB-BPY//COFTAPB-BPY film device as a control. The asymmetric Ni-COFTAPB-BPY//COFTAPB-BPY film supercapacitor could enhance the energy density of 273.9 mW h cm-3 at 14.09 W cm-3 from 85.2 mW h cm-3 at 4.38 W cm-3 for the symmetric COFTAPB-BPY//COFTAPB-BPY film device. This work provides a new perspective on the application of self-supporting COF nanofilms as film asymmetric supercapacitors.

Abstract
Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) are new organic porous materials constructed by covalent bonds, with the advantages of pre-designable topology, adjustable pore size, and abundant active sites. Many research studies have shown that COFs exhibit great potential in gas adsorption, molecular separation, catalysis, drug delivery, energy storage, etc. However, the electrons and holes of intrinsic COF are prone to compounding in transport, and the carrier lifetime is short. The donor-acceptor (D-A) type COFs, which are synthesized by introducing D and A units into the COFs backbone, combine separated electron and hole migration pathway, tunable band gap and optoelectronic properties of D-A type polymers with the unique advantages of COFs and have made great progress in related research in recent years. Here, the synthetic strategies of D-A type COFs are first outlined, including the rational design of linkages and D-A units as well as functionalization approaches. Then the applications of D-A type COFs in catalytic reactions, photothermal therapy, and electronic materials are systematically summarized. In the final section, the current challenges, and new directions for the development of D-A type COFs are presented.

Abstract
Solvent effect plays an important role in catalytic reaction, but there is little research and attention on it in electrochemical CO2 reduction reaction (eCO2 RR). Herein, we report a stable covalent-organic framework (denoted as PcNi-im) with imidazole groups as a new electrocatalyst for eCO2 RR to CO. Interestingly, compared with neutral conditions, PcNi-im not only showed high Faraday efficiency of CO product (≈100 %) under acidic conditions (pH ≈ 1), but also the partial current density was increased from 258 to 320 mA cm-2 . No obvious degradation was observed over 10 hours of continuous operation at the current density of 250 mA cm-2 . The mechanism study shows that the imidazole group on the framework can be protonated to form an imidazole cation in acidic media, hence reducing the surface work function and charge density of the active metal center. As a result, CO poisoning effect is weakened and the key intermediate *COOH is also stabilized, thus accelerating the catalytic reaction rate.

Abstract
It is generally assumed that the more metal atoms in covalent organic frameworks (COFs) contribute to higher activity toward electrocatalytic carbon dioxide reduction (CO2RR) and hindered us in exploring the correlation between the density of catalytic sites and catalytic performances. Herein, we have constructed quantitative density of catalytic sites in multiple COFs for CO2RR, in which the contents of phthalocyanine (H2Pc) and nickel phthalocyanine (NiPc) units were preciously controlled. With a molar ratio of 1/1 for the H2Pc and NiPc units in COFs, the catalyst achieved the highest selectivity with a carbon monoxide Faradaic efficiency (FECO) of 95.37% and activity with a turnover frequency (TOF) of 4713.53 h-1. In the multiple H2Pc/NiPc-COFs, the electron-donating features of the H2Pc units provide electron transport to the NiPc centers and thus improved the binding ability of CO2 and intermediates on the NiPc units. The theoretical calculation further confirmed that the H2Pc units donated their electrons to the NiPc units in the frameworks, enhanced the electron density of the Ni sites, and improved the binding ability with Lewis acidic CO2 molecules, thereby boosting the CO2RR performance. This study provides us with new insight into the design of highly active catalysts in electrocatalytic systems.

Abstract
Single-atom catalysts with a well-defined metal center open unique opportunities for exploring the catalytically active site and reaction mechanism of chemical reactions. However, understanding of the electronic and structural dynamics of single-atom catalytic centers under reaction conditions is still limited due to the challenge of combining operando techniques that are sensitive to such sites and model single-atom systems. Herein, supported by state-of-the-art operando techniques, we provide an in-depth study of the dynamic structural and electronic evolution during the electrochemical CO2 reduction reaction (CO2RR) of a model catalyst comprising iron only as a high-spin (HS) Fe(III)N4 center in its resting state. Operando 57Fe Mössbauer and X-ray absorption spectroscopies clearly evidence the change from a HS Fe(III)N4 to a HS Fe(II)N4 center with decreasing potential, CO2- or Ar-saturation of the electrolyte, leading to different adsorbates and stability of the HS Fe(II)N4 center. With operando Raman spectroscopy and cyclic voltammetry, we identify that the phthalocyanine (Pc) ligand coordinating the iron cation center undergoes a redox process from Fe(II)Pc to Fe(II)Pc-. Altogether, the HS Fe(II)Pc- species is identified as the catalytic intermediate for CO2RR. Furthermore, theoretical calculations reveal that the electroreduction of the Pc ligand modifies the d-band center of the in situ generated HS Fe(II)Pc- species, resulting in an optimal binding strength to CO2 and thus boosting the catalytic performance of CO2RR. This work provides both experimental and theoretical evidence toward the electronic structural and dynamics of reactive sites in single-Fe-atom materials and shall guide the design of novel efficient catalysts for CO2RR.

Abstract
To achieve high-efficiency catalysts for CO2 reduction reaction, various catalytic metal centres and linker molecules have been assembled into covalent organic frameworks. The amine-linkages enhance the binding ability of CO2 molecules, and the ionic frameworks enable to improve the electronic conductivity and the charge transfer along the frameworks. However, directly synthesis of covalent organic frameworks with amine-linkages and ionic frameworks is hardly achieved due to the electrostatic repulsion and predicament for the strength of the linkage. Herein, we demonstrate covalent organic frameworks for CO2 reduction reaction by modulating the linkers and linkages of the template covalent organic framework to build the correlation between the catalytic performance and the structures of covalent organic frameworks. Through the double modifications, the CO2 binding ability and the electronic states are well tuned, resulting in controllable activity and selectivity for CO2 reduction reaction. Notably, the dual-functional covalent organic framework achieves high selectivity with a maximum CO Faradaic efficiency of 97.32% and the turnover frequencies value of 9922.68 h-1, which are higher than those of the base covalent organic framework and the single-modified covalent organic frameworks. Moreover, the theoretical calculations further reveal that the higher activity is attributed to the easier formation of immediate *CO from COOH*. This study provides insights into developing covalent organic frameworks for CO2 reduction reaction.

Abstract
Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) have emerged as promising electrocatalysts due to their controllable architectures, highly exposed molecular active sites, and ordered structures. In this study, a series of porphyrin-based COFs (TAPP-x-COF) with various transition metals (Co, Ni, Fe) were synthesized via a facile post-metallization strategy under solvothermal synthesis. The resulting porphyrin-based COFs showed oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) activity with a trend in Co > Fe > Ni. Among them, TAPP-Co-COF exhibited the best ORR activity (E1/2 = 0.66 V and jL = 4.82 mA cm-2) in alkaline media, which is comparable to those of Pt/C under the same conditions. Furthermore, TAPP-Co-COF was employed as a cathode in a Zn-air battery, demonstrating a high power density of 103.73 mW cm-2 and robust cycling stability. This work presents a simple method for using COFs as a smart platform to fabricate efficient electrocatalysts.

Abstract
The well-defined 2D or 3D structure of covalent organic frameworks (COFs) makes it have great potential in photoelectric conversion and ions conduction fields. Herein, a new donor-accepter (D-A) COF material, named PyPz-COF, constructed from electron donor 4,4',4″,4'″-(pyrene-1,3,6,8-tetrayl)tetraaniline and electron accepter 4,4'-(pyrazine-2,5-diyl)dibenzaldehyde with an ordered and stable π-conjugated structure is reported. Interestingly, the introduction of pyrazine ring endows the PyPz-COF a distinct optical, electrochemical, charge-transfer properties, and also brings plentiful CN groups that enrich the proton by hydrogen bonds to enhance the photocatalysis performance. Thus, PyPz-COF exhibits a significantly improved photocatalytic hydrogen generation performance up to 7542 µmol g-1 h-1 with Pt as cocatalyst, also in clear contrast to that of PyTp-COF without pyrazine introduction (1714 µmol g-1 h-1 ). Moreover, the abundant nitrogen sites of the pyrazine ring and the well-defined 1D nanochannels enable the as-prepared COFs to immobilize H3 PO4 proton carriers in COFs through hydrogen bond confinement. The resulting material has an impressive proton conduction up to 8.10 × 10-2 S cm-1 at 353 K, 98% RH. This work will inspire the design and synthesis of COF-based materials with both efficient photocatalysis and proton conduction performance in the future.

Abstract
Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) are a unique new class of porous materials that arrange building units into periodic ordered frameworks through strong covalent bonds. Accompanied with structural rigidity and well-defined geometry, heteroacene-based COFs have natural advantages in constructing COFs with high stability and crystallinity. Heteroacene-based COFs usually have high physical and chemical properties, and their extended π-conjugation also leads to relatively low energy gap, effectively promoting π-electron delocalization between network units. Owing to excellent electron-withdrawing or -donating ability, heteroacene units have incomparable advantages in the preparation of donor-acceptor type COFs. Therefore, the physicochemical robust and fully conjugated heteroacene-based COFs solve the problem of traditional COFs lacking π-π interaction and chemical stability. In recent years, significant breakthroughs are made in this field, the choice of various linking modes and building blocks has fundamentally ensured the final applications of COFs. It is of great significance to summarize the heteroacene-based COFs for improving its complexity and controllability. This review first introduces the linkages in heteroacene-based COFs, including reversible and irreversible linkages. Subsequently, some representative building blocks are summarized, and their related applications are especially emphasized. Finally, conclusion and perspectives for future research on heteroacene-based COFs are presented.

Abstract
The electrocatalytic CO2 reduction reaction (ECO2RR) is considered one of the approaches with the most potential to achieve lower carbon emissions in the future, but a huge gap still exists between the current ECO2RR technology and industrial applications. Therefore, the design and preparation of catalysts with satisfactory activity, selectivity and stability for the ECO2RR have attracted extensive attention. As a classic type of functional porous framework, crystalline porous materials (e.g., metal organic frameworks (MOFs) and covalent organic frameworks (COFs)) and derived porous materials (e.g., MOF/COF composites and pyrolysates) have been regarded as superior catalysts for the ECO2RR due to their advantages such as designable porosity, modifiable skeleton, flexible active site structure, regulable charge transfer pathway and controllable morphology. Meanwhile, with the rapid development of nano-characterization and theoretical calculation technologies, the structure-activity relationships of functional porous frameworks have been comprehensively considered, i.e., metallic element type, local coordination environment, and microstructure, corresponding to selectivity, activity and mass transfer efficiency for the ECO2RR, respectively. In this review, the rational design strategy for functional porous frameworks is briefly but precisely generalized based on three key factors including metallic element type, local coordination environment, and microstructure. Then, details about the structure-activity relationships for functional porous frameworks are illustrated in the order of MOFs, COFs, composites and pyrolysates to analyze the effect of the above-mentioned three factors on their ECO2RR performance. Finally, the challenges and perspectives of functional porous frameworks for the further development of the ECO2RR are reasonably proposed, aiming to offer insights for future studies in this intriguing and significant research field.

Abstract
It is a very important but still challenging task to develop bifunctional electrocatalysts for highly efficient CO2 overall splitting. Herein, we report a stable metal-organic framework (denoted as PcNi-Co-O), composed of (2,3,9,10,16,17,23,24-octahydroxyphthalocyaninato)nickel(II) (PcNi-(O-)8) ligands and the planar CoO4 nodes, for CO2 overall splitting. When working as both cathode and anode catalysts (i.e., PcNi-Co-O||PcNi-Co-O), PcNi-Co-O achieved a commercial-scale current density of 123 mA cm-2 (much higher than the reported values (0.2-12 mA cm-2)) with a Faradic efficiency (CO) of 98% at a low cell voltage of 4.4 V. Mechanism studies suggested the synergistic effects between two active sites, namely, (i) electron transfer from CoO4 to PcNi sites under electric fields, resulting in the raised oxidizability/reducibility of CoO4/PcNi sites, respectively; (ii) the energy-level matching of cathode and anode catalysts can reduce the energy barrier of electron transfer between them and improve the performance of CO2 overall splitting.

Abstract
Electrochemical reduction of nitrate to ammonia is of great interest in water treatment with regard to the conversion of contaminants to value-added products, which requires the development of advanced electrodes to achieve high selectivity, stability, and Faradaic efficiency (FE). Herein, nickel phthalocyanine was homogeneously doped into the fiber of a carbon nanotube (CNT) sponge, enabling the production of an electrode with high electrochemical double-layer capacitance (CDL) and a large electrochemically active surface area (ECSA). The as-prepared NiPc-CNT sponge could achieve 97.6% nitrate removal, 88.4% ammonia selectivity, and 86.8% FE at a nitrate concentration of 50 mg-N L-1 under an optimized potential of -1.2 V (vs Ag/AgCl). Meanwhile, the ammonia selectivity could be further improved at the high nitrate concentration. Density functional theory calculations showed that the exposure of Ni-N4 active sites could effectively suppress the hydrogen evolution reaction and dinitrogen generation, enhancing the ammonia selectivity and Faradaic efficiency. Overall, this work sheds light on the conversion of nitrate to ammonia on the metal phthalocyanine-based electrode, offering a novel strategy for managing nitrate in wastewater.

Abstract
Since CO2 can be reutilized by using renewable electricity in form of product diversity, electrochemical CO2 reduction (ECR) is expected to be a burgeoning strategy to tackle environmental problems and the energy crisis. Nevertheless, owing to the limited selectivity and reaction efficiency for a single component product, ECR is still far from a large-scale application. Therefore, designing high performance electrocatalysts is the key objective in CO2 conversion and utilization. Unlike most other types of electrocatalysts, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have clear, designable, and tunable catalytic active sites and chemical microenvironments, which are highly conducive to establish a clear structure-performance relationship and guide the further design of high-performance electrocatalysts. This Outlook concisely and critically discusses the rational design strategies of MOF catalysts for ECR in terms of reaction selectivity, current density, and catalyst stability, and outlines the prospects for the development of MOF electrocatalysts and industrial applications. In the future, more efforts should be devoted to designing MOF structures with high stability and electronic conductivity besides high activity and selectivity, as well as to develop efficient electrolytic devices suitable for MOF catalysts.

Abstract
Porous heterostructured electrocatalysts with multifunctionality and synergistic effect have much benefit for efficient electrocatalytic CO2 reduction reaction (CO2 RR), yet it still remains a daunting challenge to explore heterostructures based on covalent organic frameworks (COFs) and metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) in this field. Here, a series of honeycomb-like porous crystalline hetero-electrocatalysts (MCH-X, X = 1-4, X stands for the numbered sample obtained from different MOF doses in the synthesis of the MCH) are synthesized, and these are successfully applied in electrocatalytic CO2 RR. The specially designed heterostructures with integrated porous MOF-template and ultrathin COF-coating enable efficient CO2 adsorption/activation and conversion into CH4 . The best of them, MCH-3, shows greatly inhibited H2 evolution, excellent current density (-398.1 mA cm-2 ), and superior FE CH 4 ${\rm{F}}{{\rm{E}}_{{\rm{C}}{{\rm{H}}_4}}}$ (76.7%) to the physical mixture (38.0%), the MOF@COF without the honeycomb-like morphology (47.7%), and the bare COF (37.5%) and MOF (15.9%) at -1.0 V. Based on the density functional theory calculations and various characterizations, the vital roles of the MOF in facilitating CO2 adsorption/activation, stabilizing intermediates, and conquering the energy barrier of rate-determining step are intensively studied.

Abstract
ConspectusThe continuing increase of the concentration of atmospheric CO2 has caused many environmental issues including climate change. Catalytic conversion of CO2 using thermochemical, electrochemical, and photochemical methods is a potential technique to decrease the CO2 concentration and simultaneously obtain value-added chemicals. Due to the high energy barrier of CO2 however, this method is still far from large-scale applications which requires high activity, selectivity, and stability. Therefore, development of efficient catalysts to convert CO2 to different products is urgent. With their well-engineered pores and chemical compositions, high surface area, elevated CO2 adsorption capability, and adjustable active sites, porous crystalline frameworks including metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and covalent organic frameworks (COFs) are potential materials for catalytic CO2 conversion. Here, we summarize our recent work on MOFs and COFs for thermocatalytic, electrocatalytic, and photocatalytic CO2 conversion and describe the structure-activity relationships that could guide the design of effective catalysts.The first section of this paper describes imidazolium-functionalized porous MOFs, including porous liquid and cationic MOFs with nucleophilic halogen ions, which can promote thermocatalytically CO2 cycloaddition reaction with epoxides toward cyclic carbonates at one bar pressure. A porous liquid MOF takes on the role of a CO2 reservoir to tackle the low local CO2 concentrations in gas-liquid-solid heterogeneous reactions. Imidazolium-functionalized MOFs with halogen ions for CO2 cycloaddition could avoid the use of cocatalysts, and this leads to milder and more facile experimental conditions and separation processes.In a section dealing with the electrocatalytic CO2 reduction reaction (CO2RR), we developed a series of conductive porous framework materials with fast electron transmission capabilities, which afford high current densities and outperform the traditional MOF and COF catalysts that have been reported. The intrinsically conductive two-dimensional 2D MOFs and COFs nanosheets based on the fully π-conjugated phthalocyanine motif with excellent electron transport capability were prepared, and strong electron transporters were also integrated into metalloporphyrin-based COFs for CO2RR. Cu2O quantum dots and Cu nanoparticles (NPs) can be uniformly dispersed on porous conductive MOFs/COFs to afford synergistic and/or tandem electrocatalysts, which can achieve highly selective production of CH4 or C2H4 in CO2RR.A third section describes our efforts to facilitate electron-hole separation in CO2 photocatalysis. Our focus is on regulation of coordination spheres in MOFs, fabrication of the architecture of MOF heterojunctions, and engineering MOF films to facilitate photocatalytic CO2 reduction.Finally, we discuss several problems associated with the studies of MOFs and COFs for CO2 conversion and consider some prospects of the fabrication of effective porous frameworks for CO2 adsorption and conversion.

Abstract
Abstract
Possessing unique physicochemical properties, phthalocyanines are widely used as active components of supramolecular ensembles and nanomaterials. The functional properties of phthalocyanine-based materials are governed by not only the structure of their discotic molecules, but also the character of their intermolecular interactions, which determine both the self-assembly mechanism and the structure of such systems. This review discusses the experimental approaches, which are based on the notions of colloid and coordination chemistry that enable one to control intermolecular interactions in low-dimensional supramolecular ensembles based on phthalocyanines and metallocomplexes thereof. Using double-decker crown-substituted lanthanide phthalocyaninates as an example, it is shown how one- and two-dimensional nanomaterials with different properties can be obtained from the same type of building blocks employing a set of colloid-chemical methods. Such materials are, in particular, capable for controlled absorption of visible light in ultrathin films and can be employed as conducting one-dimensional components of planar elements for organic electronics.

Abstract
Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) are a class of organic crystalline porous materials discovered in the early 21st century that have become an attractive class of emerging materials due to their high crystallinity, intrinsic porosity, structural regularity, diverse functionality, design flexibility, and outstanding stability. However, many chemical and physical properties strongly depend on the presence of metal ions in materials for advanced applications, but metal-free COFs do not have these properties and are therefore excluded from such applications. Metalated COFs formed by combining COFs with metal ions, while retaining the advantages of COFs, have additional intriguing properties and applications, and have attracted considerable attention over the past decade. This review presents all aspects of metalated COFs, from synthetic strategies to various applications, in the hope of promoting the continued development of this young field.

Abstract
CO2 emission caused by fuel combustion and human activity has caused severe climate change and other subsequent pollutions around the world. Carbon neutralization via various novel technologies to alleviate the CO2 level in the atmosphere has thus become one of the major topics in modern research field. These advanced technologies cover CO2 capture, storage and conversion, etc., and electrocatalytic CO2 reduction reaction (CO2RR) by heterogeneous catalysts is among the most promising methods since it could utilize renewable energy and generate valuable fuels and chemicals. Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) represent crystalline organic polymers with highly rigid, conjugated structures and tunable porosity, which exhibit significant potential as heterogeneous electrocatalysts for CO2RR. This review briefly introduces related pioneering works in COF-based materials for electrocatalytic CO2RR in recent years and provides a basis for future design and synthesis of highly active and selective COF-based electrocatalysts in this direction.

Abstract
Crystalline porous materials sustained by supramolecular interactions (e.g., π-π stacking interactions) are a type of molecular crystals showing considerable stability, but their applications are rarely reported due to the high difficulty of their construction. Herein, a stable π-π stacking framework formed by a trinuclear copper(I) compound [Cu3(HBtz)3(Btz)Cl2] (CuBtz, HBtz = benzotriazole) with pyrazolate-bridged dicopper(I) sites is reported and employed for electrochemical CO2 reduction, showing an impressive performance of 73.7 ± 2.8% Faradaic efficiency for C2+ products [i.e., ethylene (44%), ethanol (21%), acetate (4.7%), and propanol (4%)] with a current density of 7.9 mA cm-2 at the potential of -1.3 V versus RHE in an H-type cell and a Faradic efficiency (61.6%) of C2+ products with a current density of ≈1 A cm-2 and a reaction rate of 5639 μmol m-2 s-1 at the potential of -1.6 V versus RHE in a flow cell device, representing an impressive performance reported to date. In-situ infrared spectroscopy, density functional theory calculations, and control experiments revealed that the uncoordinated nitrogen atoms of benzotriazolates in the immediate vicinity can act as proton relays and cooperate with the dicopper(I) site to promote the hydrogenation process of the *CO intermediate and the C-C coupling, resulting in the highly selective electroreduction of CO2 to C2+ products.

Abstract
Global climate changes have been impacted by the excessive CO 2 emission, which exacerbates the environmental problems. Electrochemical CO 2 reduction (CO 2 RR) offers the solution for utilizing CO 2 as feedstocks for value-added products while potentially mitigating the negative effects. Owing to the extreme stability of CO 2 , selectivity and efficiency are crucial factors in the development of CO 2 RR electrocatalysts. Recently, single-atom catalysts have emerged as potential electrocatalysts for CO 2 reduction. They generally comprise of atomically- and molecularly dispersed active sites over conductive supports, which enable atomic-level and molecular-level modulations. In this minireview, catalyst preparations, principle of modulations, and reaction mechanisms are summarised together with related recent advances. The atomic-level modulations are first discussed, followed by the molecular-level modulations. Finally, the current challenges and future opportunities are provided as guidance for further developments regarding the discussed topics.

Abstract
Uncontrolled growth of lithium dendrite is the key challenge that impedes the practical application of Li anodes in high-energy-density Li-metal batteries. Precisely constructing lithiophilic active sites on the anode surface is expected to be an effective strategy for promoting the anode interfacial properties and alleviating the dendrite growth of lithium. Herein, a diyne-linked phthalocyanine polymer (PcEP) with precise lithiophilic active sites is designed and constructed in a bottom-up manner in situ on the surface of the copper foil via the coupling reaction of tetraethynylphthalocyanine. The lithiophilic electron-rich pyrrolic nitrogen and aza nitrogen in the Pc structure, and the sp-hybridized carbon in the diyne linkage (-CC-CC-) in PcEP can conduct the homogeneous nucleation and deposition processes of lithium, and thus suppress the dendrite growth. This dendrite-free metallic lithium anode exhibits reduced overpotential, high coulombic efficiency (98.6%), and prolonged lifespan (200% longer than that of a Cu anode). These impressive achievements demonstrate that the advanced phthalocyanine polymer might be a promising material for addressing the critical interfacial issues related to the next-generation high-energy-density Li-metal-based storage devices.

Abstract
As hot topics in the chemical conversion of CO2 , the photo-/electrocatalytic reduction of CO2 and use of CO2 as a supporter for energy storage have shown great potential for the utilization of CO2 . However, many obstacles still exist on the road to realizing highly efficient chemical CO2 conversion, such as inefficient uptake/activation of CO2 and mass transport in catalysts. Covalent organic frameworks (COFs), as a kind of porous material, have been widely explored as catalysts for the chemical conversion of CO2 owing to their unique features. In particular, COF-based functional materials containing diverse active sites (such as single metal sites, metal nanoparticles, and metal oxides) offer great potential for realizing CO2 conversion and energy storage. This Minireview discusses recent breakthroughs in the basic knowledge, mechanisms, and pathways of chemical CO2 conversion strategies that use COF-based functional catalysts. In addition, the challenges and prospects of COF-based functional catalysts for the efficient utilization of CO2 are also introduced.

Abstract
Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) with 2D or 3D networks are a class of novel porous crystalline materials, and have attracted more and more attention in the field of gas purification owing to their attractive physicochemical properties, such as high surface area, adjustable functionality and structure, low density, and high stability. However, few systematic reviews about the application statuses of COFs in gas purification are available, especially about non-CO2 harmful gases. In this review, the recent progress of COFs about the capture, catalysis, and detection of common harmful gases (such as CO2, NOx, SO2, H2S, NH3 and volatile pollutants) were comprehensively discussed. The design strategies of COF functional materials from porosity adjustment to surface functionalization (including bottom-up approach, post-synthetic approach, and blending with other materials) for certain application were summarized in detail. Furthermore, the faced challenges and future research directions of COFs in the harmful gas treatment were clearly proposed to inspire the development of COFs.

Abstract
Metal and covalent organic frameworks (MOFs/COFs) are emerging promising candidates in the field of catalysts due to their porous nature, chemically well-defined active sites and structural diversity. However, they are typically provided with poor electrical conductivity, which is insufficient for them to work as satisfying electrocatalysts. Designing and fabricating MOFs/COFs with high conductivity presents a new avenue towards special electrochemical reactions. This minireview firstly highlighted the origin and design principles of conductive MOFs/COFs for electrocatalysis on the basis of typical charge transfer mechanisms, that is "through space", "extended conjugation" and "through bond". An overview of conductive MOFs/COFs used in the electrocatalytic carbon dioxide reduction reaction (CO2RR), water splitting and the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) was then made to track the very recent progress. In the final remarks, the present challenges and perspectives for the use of conductive MOFs/COFs as electrocatalysts including their structural optimization, feasible applications and structure-activity correlation are proposed.
