Abstract
Chemical sensing of harmful species released either from natural or anthropogenic activities is critical to ensuring human safety and health. Over the last decade, conjugated microporous polymers (CMPs) have been proven to be potential sensor materials with the possibility of realizing sensing devices for practical applications. CMPs found to be unique among other porous materials such as metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and covalent organic frameworks (COFs) due to their high chemical/thermal stability, high surface area, microporosity, efficient host-guest interactions with the analyte, efficient exciton migration along the π-conjugated chains, and tailorable structure to target specific analytes. Several CMP-based optical, electrochemical, colorimetric, and ratiometric sensors with excellent selectivity and sensing performance were reported. This review comprehensively discusses the advances in CMP chemical sensors (powders and thin films) in the detection of nitroaromatic explosives, chemical warfare agents, anions, metal ions, biomolecules, iodine, and volatile organic compounds (VOCs), with simultaneous delineation of design strategy principles guiding the selectivity and sensitivity of CMP. Preceding this, various photophysical mechanisms responsible for chemical sensing are discussed in detail for convenience. Finally, future challenges to be addressed in the field of CMP chemical sensors are discussed.

Synthesis of Electron-Rich Porous Organic Polymers via Schiff-Base Chemistry for Efficient Iodine Capture. MOLECULES (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2022; 27:molecules27165161. [PMID: 36014397 PMCID: PMC9415008 DOI: 10.3390/molecules27165161] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/20/2022] [Revised: 08/02/2022] [Accepted: 08/11/2022] [Indexed: 11/23/2022]
Abstract
As one of the main nuclear wastes generated in the process of nuclear fission, radioactive iodine has attracted worldwide attention due to its harm to public safety and environmental pollution. Therefore, it is of crucial importance to develop materials that can rapidly and efficiently capture radioactive iodine. Herein, we report the construction of three electron-rich porous organic polymers (POPs), denoted as POP-E, POP-T and POP-P via Schiff base polycondensations reactions between Td-symmetric adamantane knot and four-branched “linkage” molecules. We demonstrated that all the three POPs showed high iodine adsorption capability, among which the adsorption capacity of POP-T for iodine vapor reached up to 3.94 g·g−1 and the removal rate of iodine in n-hexane solution was up to 99%. The efficient iodine capture mechanism of the POP-T was investigated through systematic comparison of Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), Raman spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) before and after iodine adsorption. The unique π-π conjugated system between imine bonds linked aromatic rings with iodine result in charge-transfer complexes, which explains the exceptional iodine capture capacity. Additionally, the introduction of heteroatoms into the framework would also enhance the iodine adsorption capability of POPs. Good retention behavior and recycling capacity were also observed for the POPs.

Abstract
Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) are a class of crystalline porous organic polymers with polygonal porosity and highly ordered structures. The most prominent feature of the COFs is their excellent crystallinity and highly ordered modifiable one-dimensional pores. Since the first report of them in 2005, COFs with various structures were successfully synthesized and their applications in a wide range of fields including gas storage, pollution removal, catalysis, and optoelectronics explored. In the meantime, COFs also exhibited good performance in chemical and biological sensing, because their highly ordered modifiable pores allowed the selective adsorption of the analytes, and the interaction between the analytes and the COFs’ skeletons may lead to a detectable change in the optical or electrical properties of the COFs. In this review, we firstly demonstrate the basic principles of COFs-based chemical and biological sensing, then briefly summarize the applications of COFs in sensing some substances of practical value, including some gases, ions, organic compounds, and biomolecules. Finally, we discuss the trends and the challenges of COFs-based chemical and biological sensing.

Abstract
Sensing analysis is significantly important for human health and environmental safety, and has gained increasing concern. As a promising material, porous organic polymers (POPs) have drawn widespread attention due to the availability of plentiful building blocks and their tunable structures, porosity and functions. Moreover, the permanent porous nature could provide a micro-environment to interact with guest molecules, rendering POPs attractive for application in the sensing field. In this review, we give a comprehensive overview of POPs as a platform for sensing applications. POP-based sensors are mainly divided into five categories, including fluorescence turn-on sensors, fluorescence turn-off sensors, ratiometric fluorescent sensors, colorimetric sensors and chemiresistive sensors, and their various sensing applications in detecting explosives, metal ions, anions, small molecules, biological molecules, pH changes, enantiomers, latent fingerprints and thermosensation are summarized. The different structure-based POPs and their corresponding synthetic strategies as well as the related sensing mechanisms mainly including energy transfer, donor-acceptor electron transfer, absorption competition quenching and inner filter effect are also involved in the discussion. Finally, the future outlook and perspective are addressed briefly.

Abstract
Designing a strategy for easy fabrication of amorphous porous organic polymers (POPs) with regularly nanospherical structure using common chemical raw materials is highly imperative to promote the practical application for iodine capture. Uniform covalent organic nanospheres (CONs), defined as CON-TT, were easily prepared at room temperature via a Schiff base condensation reaction of tri(4-aminophenyl) methane (TAPM) and terephthalaldehyde (TPA) catalyzed by acetic acid. The obtained CON-TT exhibits a uniform nanospherical shape, high specific surface area, effective imine sorption sites and abundant benzene rings. An excellent reversible iodine adsorption capacity of 4.80 g g-1 is achieved, which can be attributed to the hybrid of physisorption and chemisorption process. We anticipate that this work can provide general guidance for the industrial large-scale preparation of other CONs for iodine capture.

Abstract
Radioactive iodine is extremely harmful to the environment, and it is of great significance to develop materials that efficiently remove iodine. We prepared two triazole metal complexes with simple method, denoted as Zn(tr)(OAc) and Zn(ttr)(OAc), which were used to adsorb iodine from aqueous solution. The properties and adsorption mechanism of the two materials were studied by different techniques including XRD, SEM, N2 porosimetry at 77 K, FTIR, TGA, elemental analysis (EDS), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The results showed that both materials had good water and thermal stability. Pseudo-second-order kinetic model was better at describing the iodine adsorption kinetics onto the adsorbents. It was proved that chemical adsorption dominated, iodine mainly enriched on the materials in the form of I3-1. Zn(ttr)(OAc) had a higher adsorption capacity than Zn(tr)(OAc) due to the electron-donating group -NH2. The maximum adsorption capacity of the two materials for iodine reached 714.501 mg·g-1 and 846.108 mg·g-1 at 25 °C.

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 novel triazene-anthracene-based fluorescent aminal linked porous organic polymer (TALPOP) was prepared via metal free-Schiff base polycondensation reaction of 9,10-bis-(4,6-diamino-S-triazin-2-yl)anthracene and 2-furaldehyde. The polymer has exceptional chemical and thermal stabilities and exhibit good porosity with Brunauer–Emmett–Teller surface area of 401 m2g−1. The combination of such porosity along with the highly conjugated heteroatom-rich framework enabled the polymer to exhibit exceptional iodine vapor uptake of up to 314 wt % and reversible iodine adsorption in solution. Because of the inclusion of the anthracene moieties, the TALPOP exhibited excellent detection sensitivity towards iodine via florescence quenching with Ksv value of 2.9 × 103 L mol−1. The cost effective TALPOP along with its high uptake and sensing of iodine, make it an ideal material for environmental remediation.
