Abstract
In recent years, there has been considerable focus on the development of charge transfer (CT) complex formation as a means to modify the band gaps of organic materials. In particular, CT complexes alternate layers of aromatic molecules with donor (D) and acceptor (A) properties to provide inherent electrical conductivity. In particular, the synthetic porous frameworks as attractive D-A components have been extensively studied in recent years in comparison to existing D-A materials. Therefore, in this work, the synthetic porous frameworks are classified into conjugated microporous polymers (CMPs), covalent organic frameworks (COFs), and metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and compare high-quality materials for CT in semiconductors. This work updates the overview of the above porous frameworks for CT, starting with their early history regarding their semiconductor applications, and lists CT concepts and selected key developments in their CT complexes and CT composites. In addition, the network formation methods and their functionalization are discussed to provide access to a variety of potential applications. Furthermore, several theoretical investigations, efficiency improvement techniques, and a discussion of the electrical conductivity of the porous frameworks are also highlighted. Finally, a perspective of synthetic porous framework studies on CT performance is provided along with some comparisons.

Abstract
Microporous organic polymers that have three-dimensional connectivity stemming from monomers with tetrahedral or tetrahedron-like geometry can have high surface areas and strong fluorescence. There are however few examples of such polymers based on hindered biaryls, and their fluorescence has not been studied. Hypothesizing that the contortion in a hindered biphenyl moiety would modulate the optical properties of a polymer built from it, we synthesized a meta-enchained polyphenylene from a 2,2',6,6'-tetramethylbiphenyl-based monomer, in which the two phenyl rings are nearly mutually perpendicular. The polymer was microporous with SBET = 495 m2 g-1. The polymer absorbed near-UV light and emitted blue fluorescence despite the meta-enchainment that would have been expected to break the conjugation. A related copolymer, synthesized from 2,2',6,6'-tetramethylbiphenyl-based and unsubstituted biphenyl-based monomers, was microporous but not fluorescent.

Abstract
Atmospheric water harvesting (AWH) is recognized as a crucial strategy to address the global challenge of water scarcity by tapping into the vast reserves of atmospheric moisture for potable water supply. Within this domain, sorbents lie in the core of AWH technologies as they possess broad adaptability across a wide spectrum of humidity levels, underpinned by the cyclic sorption and desorption processes of sorbents, necessitating a multi-scale viewpoint regarding the rational material and chemical selection and design. This Invited Review delves into the essential sorption mechanisms observed across various classes of sorbent systems, emphasizing the water-sorbent interactions and the progression of water networks. A special focus is placed on the insights derived from isotherm profiles, which elucidate sorbent structures and sorption dynamics. From these foundational principles, we derive material and chemical design guidelines and identify key tuning factors from a structural-functional perspective across multiple material systems, addressing their fundamental chemistries and unique attributes. The review further navigates through system-level design considerations to optimize water production efficiency. This review aims to equip researchers in the field of AWH with a thorough understanding of the water-sorbent interactions, material design principles, and system-level considerations essential for advancing this technology.

Abstract
The growing need for high-power and compact-size microelectronic integrated circuits (ICs) in modern microelectronic industries and 5G communication systems demands low dielectric constant (κ) polymer dielectrics with excellent temperature capability, mechanical property and processability. However, conventional molecular design strategies often face difficulties of a trade-off between optimizing the dielectric performance of polymers and maintaining the aforementioned properties. Herein, we present an innovative and facile strategy that utilizes the space charge distribution characteristics of the target co-monomer to solve this trade-off. Based on this design strategy, a novel polyaryl ether ketone (PAEK) with two different charge distribution units (BAF and SBI) was designed and synthesized. Both the experimental results and computational simulations confirm that these two components serve to weaken the polarization of molecular chains in the electric field, induce higher molecular chain packing density and fewer weaknesses, and synchronously regulate the κ, dielectric loss (tan δ), thermal and mechanical properties and processability by generating a strong inter-chain electrostatic interaction. The resultant copolymer, PAEK-4F6S, exhibits exceptional low κ and tan δ values of 1.98 and 0.0024 at 1 MHz, respectively, and these values remain stable over a broad frequency (1-106 Hz, 8.2-12.4 GHz) and temperature range (30-150 °C). Furthermore, the resultant copolymer demonstrates excellent thermal stability and mechanical properties, with a glass transition temperature (Tg) of 195 °C, 5 wt% decomposition temperature (Td5%) of 498 °C under N2, tensile strength of 63.5 MPa and tensile modulus of 1011.2 MPa, respectively. The synthesis procedure of these resultant copolymers is facile, and they are found to have favorable solution and melt processing properties, making them suitable for processing and scalable production. More importantly, this design strategy is beneficial for lowering the κ and tan δ values, and simultaneously enhancing the comprehensive performances of the objective polymers, which provides a completely novel and facile approach for the design and fabrication of high performance low-κ polymers suitable for the needs of microelectronics and communication fields.

Abstract
Vanillin finds widespread applications in various industries, such as food, pharmaceuticals, and cosmetics. However, excessive intake of vanillin could pose risks to human health. This study detailed the successful creation of a heterojunction of branched benzopyrazine-based polymers coating on graphene (CMP-rGO) through the Sonogashira-Hagihara coupling reaction. Utilizing the CMP-rGO, a novel electrochemical sensor for vanillin detection was developed. Besides, the synthesized materials were validated using standard characterization techniques. Both cyclic voltammetry and differential pulse voltammetry techniques were employed to investigate vanillin's electrochemical characteristics on this sensor. The findings indicated a significant enhancement in vanillin's electrochemical signal responsiveness with the application of CMP-rGO. Under optimal conditions, the sensor demonstrated a linear response to vanillin concentrations ranging from 0.08 to 33 μM and achieved a detection limit as low as 0.014 μM. Also, the constructed electrochemical sensor exhibited excellent selectivity, stability, and reproducibility. It has been effectively employed to detect vanillin in real samples such as human serum, human urine, and vanillin tablets, with a recovery rate of 99.13-103.6 % and an RSD of 3.46-1.26 %. Overall, this innovative sensor offers a novel approach to the efficient and convenient detection of vanillin.

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.

Abstract
Rising carbon dioxide (CO2) levels in the atmosphere are recognized as a threat to atmospheric stability and life. Although this greenhouse gas is being produced on a large scale, there are solutions to reduction and indeed utilization of the gas. Many of these solutions involve costly or unstable technologies, such as air-sensitive metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) for CO2 capture or "non-green" systems such as amine scrubbing. Conjugated microporous polymers (CMPs) represent a simpler, cheaper, and greener solution to CO2 capture and utilization. They are often easy to synthesize at scale (a one pot reaction in many cases), chemically and thermally stable (especially in comparison with their MOF and covalent organic framework (COF) counterparts, owing to their amorphous nature), and, as a result, cheap to manufacture. Furthermore, their large surface areas, tunable porous frameworks and chemical structures mean they are reported as highly efficient CO2 capture motifs. In addition, they provide a dual pathway to utilize captured CO2 via chemical conversion or electrochemical reduction into industrially valuable products. Recent studies show that all these attractive properties can be realized in metal-free CMPs, presenting a truly green option. The promising results in these two fields of CMP applications are reviewed and explored here.

Abstract
Inorganic-organic hybrid materials are a kind of multiduty materials with high crystallinity and definite structures, built from functional inorganic and organic components with highly tunable photochemical properties. Perylenediimides (PDIs) are a kind of strong visible light-absorbing organic dyes with π-electron-deficient planes and photochemical properties depending on their micro-environment, which provides a platform for designing tunable and efficient hybrid photocatalytic materials. Herein, four radical-doped PDI-based crystalline hybrid materials, Cl4-PDI⋅SiW12O40 (1), Cl4-PDI⋅SiMo12O40 (2), Cl4-PDI⋅PW12O40 (3), and Cl4-PDI⋅PMo12O40 (4), were attained by slow diffusion of polyoxometalates (POMs) into acidified Cl4-PDI solutions. The obtained PDI-based crystalline hybrid materials not only exhibited prominent photochromism, but also possessed reactive organic radicals under ambient conditions. Furthermore, all hybrid materials could be easily photoreduced to their radical anions (Cl4-PDI⋅-), and then underwent a second photoexcitation to form energetic excited state radical anions (Cl4-PDI⋅-*). However, experiments and theoretical calculations demonstrated that the formed energetic Cl4-PDI⋅-* showed unusual POM-dependent photocatalytic efficiencies toward the oxidative coupling of amines and the iodoperfluoroalkylation of alkenes; higher photocatalytic efficiencies were found for hybrid materials 1 (anion: SiW12O40 4-) and 2 (anion: SiMo12O40 4-) compared to 3 (anion: PW12O40 3-) and 4 (anion: PMo12O40 3-). The photocatalytic efficiencies of these hybrid materials are mainly controlled by the energy differences between the SOMO-2 level of Cl4-PDI⋅-* and the LUMO level of the POMs. The structure-photocatalytic activity relationships established in present work provide new research directions to both the photocatalysis and hybrid material fields, and will promote the integration of these areas to explore new materials with interesting properties.

Abstract
Detoxification of 4-nitrophenol (4-NP) to 4-aminophenol (4-AP) with high efficiency and dynamic performance is challenging for a polymeric catalyst. Herein, a series of conjugated microporous polyanilines (CMPAs), capable of efficiently catalytically reducing 4-NP, were synthesized based on the Buchwald-Hartwig cross-coupling reaction mechanism. By adjusting the types of linkers and the molar ratios of linker to core, CMPAs with different Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) specific surface areas and reduction degrees were obtained and used as the catalysts in reducing 4-NP. The ultrahigh catalytic reduction efficiency (K = 141.32 s-1 g-1, kapp = 0.00353 s-1) was achieved when using CMPA-3-0.7 as the catalyst (prepared with 4,4'-diaminodiphenylamine as the linker and a 0.7:1 molar ratio of linker to core). The catalytic reduction performance exhibited a strong correlation with the reduction degree and BET specific surface area of CMPAs. Furthermore, they also exhibit excellent cycling stability and dynamic performance. The coexistence of a microporous structure and high BET specific surface area endowed CMPAs with an increased number of catalytic active centers. The reversible redox transformation of CMPAs in the presence of NaBH4 and air enabled self-healing (the oxidation units in CMPAs were reduced to reduction units by NaBH4, and the newly generated reduction unit in CMPAs was subsequently oxidized to its original state by the O2 in the air), leading to the reduction reaction of 4-NP proceeded continuously and stably. The aforementioned factors resulted in the high efficiency of CMPAs for reducing 4-NP to 4-AP, enhancing the practical application prospects of CMPAs in the detoxification of 4-NP wastewater.

Abstract
The development of synthetic routes for the formation of robust porous organic polymers (POPs) with well-defined nanoscale morphology is fundamentally significant for their practical applications. The thermodynamic characteristics that arise from reversible covalent bonding impart intrinsic chemical instability in the polymers, thereby impeding their overall potential. Herein, a unique strategy is reported to overcome the stability issue by designing robust imidazole-linked POPs via tandem reversible/irreversible bond formation. Incorporating inherent rigidity into the secondary building units leads to robust microporous polymeric nanostructures with hollow-spherical morphologies. An in-depth analysis by extensive solid-state NMR (1D and 2D) study on 1H, 13C, and 14N nuclei elucidates the bonding and reveals the high purity of the newly designed imidazole-based POPs. The nitrogen-rich polymeric nanostructures are further used as metal-free electrocatalysts for water splitting. In particular, the rigid POPs show excellent catalytic activity toward the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) with long-term durability. Among them, the most efficient OER electrocatalyst (TAT-TFBE) requires 314 mV of overpotential to drive 10 mA cm-2 current density, demonstrating its superiority over state-of-the-art catalysts (RuO2 and IrO2).

Abstract
The rapid development of nuclear energy posed a great threat to the environment and human health. Herein, two hydroxyl-functionalized hyper-crosslinked polymers (PIHCP-1 and PIHCP-2) containing different electron active sites have been synthesized via Friedel-Crafts alkylation reaction of the polyimides. The resulting polymers showed a micro/mesoporous morphology and good thermal and chemical stability. Rely on the high porosity and multi-active sites, the PIHCPs show an ultrahigh iodine uptake capacity reached 6.73 g g-1 and the iodine removal efficiency from aqueous solution also reaches 99.7%. Kinetic analysis demonstrates that the iodine adsorption on PIHCPs was happened on the heterogeneous surfaces in the form of multilayer chemisorption. Electrostatic potential (ESP) calculation proves the great contribution of hydroxyl groups on the iodine capture performance. In addition, the iodine capture efficiency of both adsorbents can be maintained over 91% after four cyclic experiments which ensures their good recyclability for further practical applications.

Abstract
Appearing as a new class of functional organic materials, covalent organic frameworks (COFs) have aroused a huge wave of interest in versatile fields ever since they were first proposed in 2005. Thanks to but not limited to their ultralight weights, high surface areas, ordered channels, variable functional groups and well-defined crystal structures, the applications of COF-based biomaterials in the fields of drug loading and delivery, photodynamic therapy, photothermal therapy, bioimaging, etc. are comprehensively summarized and introduced. The existing challenges and future prospects for this emerging but hot research direction are also discussed. It is hoped that this review will serve as a guidance for future research on COFs as multifunctional bioplatforms.

Abstract
A versatile post-synthetic modification strategy to functionalize a high surface area microporous network (MPN-OH) by bio-orthogonal inverse electron-demand Diels-Alder (IEDDA) ligation is presented. While the polymer matrix is modified with a readily accessible norbornene isocyanate (Nor-NCO), a series of functional units presenting the robust asymmetric 1,2,4,5-tetrazine (Tz) allows easy functionalization of the MPN by chemoselective Nor/Tz ligation. A generic route is demonstrated, modulating the internal interfaces by introducing carboxylates, amides or amino acids as well as an oligopeptide d-Pro-Pro-Glu organocatalyst. The MPN-Pz-Peptide construct largely retains the catalytic activity and selectivity in an enantioselective enamine catalysis, demonstrates remarkable availability in different solvents, offers heterogeneous organocatalysis in bulk and shows stability in recycling settings.

Abstract
The inevitable intermittency of solar illumination during the interfacial evaporation process can cause a reduction in the evaporation performance of solar evaporators. Here, we report the fabrication of a new solar-driven interfacial evaporator using MXene nanosheets as the photothermal layer, modifying them with conjugated microporous polymer hollow microspheres, and then compounding them with the phase change material, in this case, cetyl alcohol, to form a composite evaporator (CE) that can perform all-weather solar interfacial evaporation. By combining interfacial evaporation photothermal conversion with energy storage, the evaporator achieves an evaporation rate of 1.57 kg⋅m-2⋅h-1 at a light intensity of 1 kW⋅m-2 and 2.79 kg⋅m-2⋅h-1 at a light intensity of 2 kW⋅m-2. In addition, the evaporator attains an excellent solar evaporation efficiency of over 91% in both cases and even in salt water. In addition, interestingly, our CE exhibits excellent continuous evaporation ability, e.g., the mass of evaporated water was increased by 0.36 kg⋅m-2 at a light intensity of 2 kW⋅m-2 compared to the cavity evaporator without the phase change material (PCM) when solar light was turned off. These results could be attributed to the fact that the energy released by the incorporated phase change material allows the evaporator to maintain stable evaporation under conditions of insufficient or intermittent solar irradiation, potentially providing a new opportunity for addressing the intermittent problem of evaporation at the solar interface due to unstable light intensity, thus showing great potential for practical continuous desalination.

Abstract
Photocatalysts capable of harvesting a broad range of the solar spectrum are essential for sustainable chemical transformations and environmental remediation. Herein, we have integrated NIR-absorbing upconversion nanoparticles (UCNP) with UV-Vis absorbing conjugated porous organic polymer (POP) through the in situ multicomponent C-C coupling to fabricate a UC-POP nanocomposite. The light-harvesting ability of UC-POP is further augmented by loading plasmonic gold nanoparticles (AuNP) into UC-POP. A three-times enhancement in the upconversion luminescence is observed upon the incorporation of AuNP in UC-POP, subsequently boosting the photocatalytic activity of UC-POP-Au. The spectroscopic and photoelectrochemical investigations infer the enhanced photocatalytic oxidation of thioethers, including mustard gas simulant by UC-POP-Au compared to POP and UC-POP due to the facile electron-hole pair generation, suppressed exciton recombination, and efficient charge carrier migration. Thus, the unique design strategy of combining plasmonic and upconversion nanoparticles with a conjugated porous organic polymer opens up new vistas towards artificial light harvesting.

Abstract
Food safety is a burning global issue in this present era. The prevalence of harmful food additives and contaminants in everyday food is a significant cause for concern as they can adversely affect human health. More particularly, among the different food contaminants, the use of excessive pesticides in agricultural products is severely hazardous. So, the optical detection of residual pesticides is an effective strategy to counter the hazardous effect and ensure food safety. In this perspective, nanomaterials have played a leading role in defending the open threat against food safety instigated by the reckless use of pesticides. Now, nanomaterial-based optical detection of pesticides has reached full pace and needs an inclusive discussion. This Review covers the advancement of photoprocess-based optical detection of pesticides categorically using nanomaterials. Here, we have thoroughly dissected the photoprocesses (aggregation and aggregation-induced emission (AIE), charge transfer and intramolecular charge transfer (ICT), electron transfer and photoinduced electron transfer (PET), fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET), hydrogen bonding, and inner filter effect) and categorically demarcated their significant role in the optical detection of pesticides by luminescent nanomaterials over the last few years.

Abstract
There is a growing interest in new semiconductor nanostructures for future high-density high-performance flexible electronic devices. Two-dimensional conjugated microporous polymers (2D-CMPs) are promising candidates because of their inherent optoelectronic properties. Here, we are reporting a novel donor-acceptor type 2D-CMP based on Pyrene and Isoindigo (PI) for a potential nano-scale charge-trapping memory application. We exfoliated the PI polymer into ~ 2.5 nm thick nanoparticles (NPs) and fabricated a Metal-Insulator-Semiconductor (MIS) device with PI-NPs embedded in the insulator. Conductive AFM (cAFM) is used to examine the confinement mechanism as well as the local charge injection process, where ultrathin high-κ alumina supplied the energy barrier for confining the charge carrier transport. We have achieved a reproducible on-and-off state and a wide memory window (ΔV) of 1.5 V at a relatively small reading current. The device displays a low operation voltage (V < 1 V), with good retention (104 s), and endurance (103 cycles). Furthermore, a theoretical analysis is developed to affirm the measured charge carriers' transport and entrapment mechanisms through and within the fabricated MIS structures. The PI-NPs act as a nanoscale floating gate in the MIS-based memory with deep trapping sites for the charged carriers. Moreover, our results demonstrate that the synthesized 2D-CMP can be promising for future low-power high-density memory applications.

Abstract
The catalytic activity of multifunctional, microporous materials is directly linked to the spatial arrangement of their structural building blocks. Despite great achievements in the design and incorporation of isolated catalytically active metal complexes within such materials, a detailed understanding of their atomic-level structure and the local environment of the active species remains a fundamental challenge, especially when these latter are hosted in non-crystalline organic polymers. Here, we show that by combining computational chemistry with pair distribution function analysis, 129 Xe NMR, and Dynamic Nuclear Polarization enhanced NMR spectroscopy, a very accurate description of the molecular structure and confining surroundings of a catalytically active Rh-based organometallic complex incorporated inside the cavity of amorphous bipyridine-based porous polymers is obtained. Small, but significant, differences in the structural properties of the polymers are highlighted depending on their backbone motifs.

Abstract
Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) are composed of small organic molecules linked via covalent bonds, which have tunable mesoporous structure, good biocompatibility and functional diversities. These excellent properties make COFs a promising candidate for constructing biomedical nanoplatforms and provide ample opportunities for nanomedicine development. A systematic review of the linkage types and synthesis methods of COFs is of indispensable value for their biomedical applications. In this review, we first summarize the types of various linkages of COFs and their corresponding properties. Then, we highlight the reaction temperature, solvent and reaction time required by different synthesis methods and show the most suitable synthesis method by comparing the merits and demerits of various methods. To appreciate the cutting-edge research on COFs in bioscience technology, we also summarize the bio-related applications of COFs, including drug delivery, tumor therapy, bioimaging, biosensing and antimicrobial applications. We hope to provide insight into the interdisciplinary research on COFs and promote the development of COF nanomaterials for biomedical applications and their future clinical translations.

Abstract
The nuclear industry will continue to develop rapidly and produce energy in the foreseeable future; however, it presents unique challenges regarding the disposal of released waste radionuclides because of their volatility and long half-life. The release of radioactive isotopes of iodine from uranium fission reactions is a challenge. Although various adsorbents have been explored for the uptake of iodine, there is still interest in novel adsorbents. The novel adsorbents should be synthesized using reliable and economically feasible synthetic procedures. Herein, we discussed the state-of-the-art performance of various categories of porous organic materials including covalent organic frameworks, covalent triazine frameworks, porous aromatic frameworks, porous organic cages, among other porous organic polymers for the uptake of iodine. This review discussed the synthesis of porous organic materials and their iodine adsorption capacity and reusability. Finally, the challenges and prospects for iodine capture using porous organic materials are highlighted.

Abstract
Doping the boron (B) element endowed organic π-conjugated polymers (OCPs) with intriguing optoelectronic properties. Herein, we introduce a new series of thienylborane-pyridine (BN) Lewis pairs via the facile reactions between thienylborane and various pyridine derivatives. Particularly, we developed a "one-pot" synthetic protocol to access BN2 with an unstable 4-bromopyridine moiety. Polycondensations between the BN Lewis pairs and distannylated thiophene afforded a new series of BN-cross-linked polythiophenes (BN-PTs). Experiments revealed that BN-PTs exhibited highly uniform chemical structures, particularly the uniform chemical environment of B-centers. BN-PTs showed good stability in the solid state. PBN2 even maintained the uniform B-center under high temperature or moisture conditions. The studies further suggested that the presence of topological BN structures endowed the polymers with strong intramolecular charge separation character. As a proof of concept, a representative BN-PT was tested as the catalyst for photocatalytic hydrogen evolution.

Abstract
Croconic acid, a novel highly electron-deficient building block, was introduced into a conjugated microporous polymer (CTPA). The CMP possesses strong donor-acceptor interactions, which resulted in near-IR absorption (red edge ∼1350 nm), a narrow bandgap (<1 eV) and high electrical conductivity upon doping (0.1 S m-1). Compared to the squaric acid congener (STPA), CTPA showed superior optical, electronic and electrical properties.

Abstract
Life on earth is dependent on clean water, which is crucial for survival. Water supplies are getting contaminated due to the growing human population and its associated industrialization, urbanization, and chemically improved agriculture. Currently, a large number of people struggle to find clean drinking water, a problem that is particularly serious in developing countries. To meet the enormous demand of clean water around the world, there is an urgent need of advanced technologies and materials that are affordable, easy to use, thermally efficient, portable, environmentally benign, and chemically durable. The physical, chemical and biological methods are used to eliminate insoluble materials and soluble pollutants from wastewater. In addition to cost, each treatment carries its limitations in terms of effectiveness, productivity, environmental effect, sludge generation, pre-treatment demands, operating difficulties, and the creation of potentially hazardous byproducts. To overcome the problems of traditional methods, porous polymers have distinguished themselves as practical and efficient materials for the treatment of wastewater because of their distinctive characteristics such as large surface area, chemical versatility, biodegradability, and biocompatibility. This study overviews improvement in manufacturing methods and the sustainable usage of porous polymers for wastewater treatment and explicitly discusses the efficiency of advanced porous polymeric materials for the removal of emerging pollutants viz. pesticides, dyes, and pharmaceuticals whereby adsorption and photocatalytic degradation are considered to be among the most promising methods for their effective removal. Porous polymers are considered excellent adsorbents for the mitigation of these pollutants as they are cost-effective and have greater porosities to facilitate penetration and adhesion of pollutants, thus enhance their adsorption functionality. Appropriately functionalized porous polymers can offer the potential to eliminate hazardous chemicals and making water useful for a variety of purposes thus, numerous types of porous polymers have been selected, discussed and compared especially in terms of their efficiencies against specific pollutants. The study also sheds light on numerous challenges faced by porous polymers in the removal of contaminants, their solutions and some associated toxicity issues.

Abstract
Conjugated porous polymers (CPPs) have been widely reported as promising photocatalysts. However, the realization of powerful photocatalytic hydrogen production performance still benefits from the rational design of molecular frameworks and the appropriate choice of building monomers. Herein, we synthesized two novel conjugated porous polymers (CPPs) by copolymerizing pyrene and 1,3,5-triazine building blocks. It is found that minor structural changes in the peripheral groups of the triazine units can greatly affect the photocatalytic activity of the polymers. Compared with the phenyl-linkage unit, the thiophene-linkage unit can give CPP a wider absorption range of visible light, a narrower band gap, a higher transmission and separation efficiency of photo-generated carriers (electrons/holes), and a better interface contact with the photocatalytic reaction solution. The catalyst containing thiophene-triazine (ThPy-CPP) has an efficient photocatalytic hydrogen evolution rate of 21.65 and 16.69 mmol g-1h-1 under full-arc spectrum and visible light without the addition of a Pt co-catalyst, respectively, much better than the one containing phenyl-triazine (PhPy-CPP, only 5.73 and 3.48 mmol g-1h-1). This study provides a promising direction to design and construct highly efficient, cost-effective CPP-based photocatalysts, for exploring the application of noble metal-free catalysts in photocatalytic hydrogen evolution.

Abstract
Chemical modifications of porous materials almost always result in loss of structural integrity, porosity, solubility, or stability. Previous attempts, so far, have not allowed any promising trend to unravel, perhaps because of the complexity of porous network frameworks. But the soluble porous polymers, the polymers of intrinsic microporosity, provide an excellent platform to develop a universal strategy for effective modification of functional groups for current demands in advanced applications. Here, we report complete transformation of PIM-1 nitriles into four previously inaccessible functional groups - ketones, alcohols, imines, and hydrazones - in a single step using volatile reagents and through a counter-intuitive non-solvent approach that enables surface area preservation. The modifications are simple, scalable, reproducible, and give record surface areas for modified PIM-1s despite at times having to pass up to two consecutive post-synthetic transformations. This unconventional dual-mode strategy offers valuable directions for chemical modification of porous materials.

Abstract
Recently, exploring new type polymerization protocols has been a major driving force in advancing organic polymers into highly functional materials. Herein we report a new polycondensation protocol to implant the phosphorus (P) atom in the main backbone of crosslinked polythiophenes. The polycondensation harnesses a Stille phosphorus-carbon (P-C) coupling reaction between phosphorus halides and aryl stannanes that has not been reported previously. Mechanistic studies uncovered that the P-electrophile makes the reactivity of a catalytic Pd-center highly sensitive towards the chemical structures of aryl stannanes, which is distinct from the typical Stille carbon-carbon coupling reaction. The efficient P-C polycondensation afforded a series of P-crosslinked polythiophenes (PC-PTs). Leveraging on the direct P-crosslinking polymerization, solid-state 31P NMR studies revealed highly uniform crosslinking environments. Efficient post-polymerization P-chemistry was also applied to the PC-PTs, which readily yielded the polymers with various P-environments. As a proof of concept, new PC-PTs were applied as the photocatalysts for H2 evolution under visible light irradiation. PC-PTs with an ionic P(Me)-center exhibit a H2 evolution rate up to 2050 μmol h-1 g-1, which is much higher than those of PC-PTs with a P(O)-center (900 μmol h-1 g-1) and P(iii)-center (155 μmol h-1 g-1). For the first time, the studies reveal that regulating P-center environments can be an effective strategy for fine tuning the photocatalytic H2 evolution performance of organic polymers.

Abstract
The bulk ring-opening polymerization (ROP) of ε-caprolactone using phosphazene-containing porous polymeric material (HPCP) has been studied at high reaction temperatures (130-150 °C). HPCP in conjunction with benzyl alcohol as an initiator induced the living ROP of ε-caprolactone, affording polyesters with a controlled molecular weight up to 6000 g mol-1 and moderate polydispersity (Ð~1.5) under optimized conditions ([BnOH]/[CL] = 50; HPCP: 0.63 mM; 150 °C). Poly(ε-caprolactone)s with higher molecular weight (up to Mn = 14,000 g mol-1, Ð~1.9) were obtained at a lower temperature, at 130 °C. Due to its high thermal and chemical stability, HPCP can be reused for at least three consecutive cycles without a significant decrease in the catalyst efficiency. The tentative mechanism of the HPCP-catalyzed ROP of ε-caprolactone, the key stage of which consists of the activation of the initiator through the basic sites of the catalyst, was proposed.

Abstract
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) and nitric oxide (NO) are especially known as toxic and polluting gases, yet they are also endogenously produced and play key roles in numerous biological processes. These two opposing aspects of the gases highlight the need for new types of materials to be developed in addition to the most common materials such as activated carbons and zeolites. Herein, a new imine-linked polymer organic framework was obtained using the inexpensive and easy-to-access reagents isophthalaldehyde and 2,4,6-triaminopyrimidine in good yield (64%) through the simple and catalyst-free Schiff-base reaction. The polymeric material has microporosity, an ABET surface area of 51 m2/g, and temperature stability up to 300 °C. The obtained 2,4,6-triaminopyrimidine imine-linked polymer organic material has a higher capacity to adsorb NO (1.6 mmol/g) than H2S (0.97 mmol/g). Release studies in aqueous solution showed that H2S has a faster release (3 h) from the material than NO, for which a steady release was observed for at least 5 h. This result is the first evaluation of the possibility of an imine-linked polymer organic framework being used in the therapeutic release of NO or H2S.

Abstract
Hexagonal carbon nanoplates bearing MoS2 (HCN@MoS2) were synthesized using two-dimensional (2D) microporous organic polymers as templating materials. The layer number of MoS2 in HCN@MoS2 and the 2D morphology of composites were critical factors to achieve high-performance cathode materials for aqueous zinc-ion batteries. The best cathode performance was obtained with HCN@MoS2 bearing 2-3 layered MoS2 (HCN@MoS2-2), showing excellent discharge capacities of 602 mAh/g (@50 mA/g), 498 mAh/g (@0.1 A/g), and 328 mAh/g (@1 A/g). The promising electrochemical performance of HCN@MoS2-2 is attributable to the facilitated insertion of zinc ions into 2-3 layered MoS2 due to the reduced lattice energy and the efficient electrochemical utilization of composite materials.

Abstract
The paper reports the first free-radical solid-phase polymerization (SPP) of acetylenes. Acetylene monomers were co-crystalized using halogen bonding, and the obtained cocrystals were polymerized. Notably, because of the alignment of acetylene monomers in the cocrystals, the adjacent C≡C groups were close enough to undergo radical polymerization effectively, enabling the radically low-reactive acetylene monomers to generate high-molecular-weight polyacetylenes that are unattainable in solution-phase radical polymerizations. Furthermore, the SPP of a crosslinkable diacetylene monomer yielded networked two-dimensional conjugated microporous polymers (2D CMPs), where 2D porous polyacetylene nanosheets were cumulated in layer-by-layer manners. Because of the porous structures, the obtained 2D CMPs worked as highly efficient and selective adsorbents of lithium (Li+) and boronium (B3+) ions, adsorbing up to 312 mg of Li+ (31.2 wt%) and 196 mg of B3+ (19.6 wt%) per 1 g of CMP. This Li+ adsorption capacity is the highest ever record in the area of Li+ adsorption.

Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) have been a current research topic for many years. PHAs are biopolymers produced by bacteria under unfavorable growth conditions. They are biomaterials that exhibit a variety of properties, including biocompatibility, biodegradability, and high mechanical strength, making them suitable for future applications. This review aimed to provide general information on PHAs, such as their structure, classification, and parameters that affect the production process. In addition, the most commonly used bacterial strains that produce PHAs are highlighted, and details are provided on the type of carbon source used and how to optimize the parameters for bioprocesses. PHAs present a challenge to researchers because a variety of parameters affect biosynthesis, including the variety of carbon sources, bacterial strains, and culture media. Nevertheless, PHAs represent an opportunity to replace plastics, because they can be produced quickly and at a relatively low cost. With growing environmental concerns and declining oil reserves, polyhydroxyalkanoates are a potential replacement for nonbiodegradable polymers. Therefore, the study of PHA production remains a hot topic, as many substrates can be used as carbon sources. Both researchers and industry are interested in facilitating the production, commercialization, and application of PHAs as potential replacements for nonbiodegradable polymers. The fact that they are biocompatible, environmentally biodegradable, and adaptable makes PHAs one of the most important materials available in the market. They are preferred in various industries, such as agriculture (for bioremediation of oil-polluted sites, minimizing the toxicity of pollutants, and environmental impact) or medicine (as medical devices). The various bioprocess technologies mentioned earlier will be further investigated, such as the carbon source (to obtain a biopolymer with the lowest possible cost, such as glucose, various fatty acids, and especially renewable sources), pretreatment of the substrate (to increase the availability of the carbon source), and supplementation of the growth environment with different substances and minerals). Consequently, the study of PHA production remains a current topic because many substrates can be used as carbon sources. Obtaining PHA from renewable substrates (waste oil, coffee grounds, plant husks, etc.) contributes significantly to reducing PHA costs. Therefore, in this review, pure bacterial cultures (Bacillus megaterium, Ralstonia eutropha, Cupriavidus necator, and Pseudomonas putida) have been investigated for their potential to utilize by-products as cheap feedstocks. The advantage of these bioprocesses is that a significant amount of PHA can be obtained using renewable carbon sources. The main disadvantage is that the chemical structure of the obtained biopolymer cannot be determined in advance, as is the case with bioprocesses using a conventional carbon source. Polyhydroxyalkanoates are materials that can be used in many fields, such as the medical field (skin grafts, implantable medical devices, scaffolds, drug-controlled release devices), agriculture (for polluted water cleaning), cosmetics and food (biodegradable packaging, gentle biosurfactants with suitable skin for cosmetics), and industry (production of biodegradable biopolymers that replace conventional plastic). Nonetheless, PHA biopolymers continue to be researched and improved and play an important role in various industrial sectors. The properties of this material allow its use as a biodegradable material in the cosmetics industry (for packaging), in the production of biodegradable plastics, or in biomedical engineering, as various prostheses or implantable scaffolds.

Abstract
The enantioselective discrimination of racemic compounds can be achieved through the design and preparation of a new family of chiral conjugated BINOL-porous polymers (CBPPs) from enantiopure (R)- or (S)-BINOL derivatives and 1,3,5-tris(4-phenylboronic acid)benzene or 1,3,5-tris(4-ethynylphenyl)benzene, 1,3,5-triethynyl-2,4,6-trifluorobenzene, and tetra(4-ethynylphenyl)methane as comonomers following Suzuki-Miyaura and Sonogashira-Hagihara carbon-carbon coupling approaches. The obtained CBPPs show high thermal stability, a good specific surface area, and a robust framework and can be applied successfully in the fluorescence recognition of enantiomers of terpenes (limonene and α-pinene) and 1-phenylethylamine. Fluorescence titration of CBPPs-OH in acetonitrile shows that all Sonogashira hosts exhibit a preference for the (R)-enantiomer over the (S)-enantiomer of 1-phenylethylamine, the selectivity being much higher than that of the corresponding BINOL-based soluble system used as a reference. However, the Suzuki host reveals a preference toward (S)-phenylethylamine. Regarding the sensing of terpenes, only Sonogashira hosts show enantiodifferentiation with an almost total preference for the (S)-enantiomer of limonene and α-pinene. Based on the computational simulations and the experimental data, with 1-phenylethylamine as the analyte, chiral recognition is due to the distinctive binding affinities resulting from N···H-O hydrogen bonds and the π-π interaction between the host and the guest. However, for limonene, the geometry of the adsorption complex is mostly governed by the interaction between the hydroxyl group of the BINOL unit and the C═C bond of the iso-propenyl fragment. The synthetic strategy used to prepare CBPPs opens many possibilities to place chiral centers such as BINOL in porous polymers for different chiral applications such as enantiomer recognition.

Abstract
In this work, two kinds of imine-type covalent organic framework (COF) nanoparticles are demonstrated as efficient photocatalytic initiators to trigger the free-radical polymerization of acrylamide (AM) to prepare polyacrylamide (PAM) hydrogels under visible light irradiation, without any assistance from the co-initiator. Simultaneously, the COF nanoparticles bearing vinyl side groups (COF-V) promote covalent cross-linking of the polymer chains, which significantly reinforces the mechanical properties of the nanocomposite hydrogel. The obtained PAM/COF-V hydrogel is highly stretchable with an extraordinary elongation up to 3300% strain. On the other hand, the COF nanoparticles modified with methoxy moieties (COF-OMe) endow the resulting PAM/COF-OMe hydrogel with a promising fluorescence feature. In addition, this strategy provides a visible-light-regulated photocatalytic polymerization approach with a simplified recipe to fabricate COF-based nanocomposite hydrogels or resins with diverse functions.

Abstract
Faradaic efficiency for the nitrogen reduction reaction (NRR) is often limited by low N2 solubility in the electrolyte, while a large number of intimate contacts between the electrolyte and solid catalyst can also inevitably sacrifice many active sites for the NRR. Here, it is reported that a "quasi-gas-solid" interface formed in donor-acceptor-based conjugated polymers (CPs) is beneficial to boosting the NRR process and at the same time suppressing the competing hydrogen evolution reaction. Of particular interest, it is found that a semicrystalline CP catalyst, SC-PBDT-TT, exhibits a high Faradaic efficiency of up to 60.5% with a maximum NH3 production rate of 16.8 µg h-1 mg-1 in a neutral-buffered seawater electrolyte. Molecular dynamics and COMSOL Multiphysics simulations reveal the origin of the observed high NRR performance arising from the presence of desirable crystal regions to resist the penetration of H2 O molecules, leading to the formation of a "quasi-gas-solid" interface inside the catalyst for a favorable direct-contact between the catalyst and N2 molecules. Furthermore, high-throughput computations, based on density functional theory, reveal the actual real active site for N2 adsorption and reduction in SC-PBDT-TT. This work provides a new framework for optimizing NRR performance of metal-free catalysts by controlling their crystallinities.

Abstract
The development of robust and efficient porous adsorbents is essential for capturing xenon (Xe) and perfluorinated electron specialty gases (F-gases) in semiconductor exhaust gases, as toxic and corrosive gases coexist in high-temperature plasma degradation off-gases. Herein, two three-dimensional (3D) fluorinated porous aromatic frameworks (PAFs) with abundant fluorine (labeled PAF-4F and PAF-8F) were synthesized. The two PAFs exhibit high IAST selectivity in capturing Xe and F-gases from semiconductor off-gases, as well as excellent physicochemical stability and reusability, which have been collaboratively verified by single-component gas adsorption and regeneration tests, etc. Density functional theory (DFT) simulation revealed that the entry of strongly electronegative fluorine atoms into PAFs causes localized charge separation on the polymer pore surface, resulting in the preferential adsorption of high-polarizability Xe and F-gases via induced electric field gradients. Systematic studies have sufficiently manifested the great potential of fluorine-functionalized porous materials to effectively capture Xe and F-gases, which provides practical insights into the fabrication of highly stable porous adsorbents for harsh operating conditions.

Abstract
Layered double hydroxides (LDHs) have emerged as one of the promising catalyst substitutes to noble metals in photocatalytic water splitting due to their unique optoelectronic properties. Herein, a series of novel PSO@NiFeLDH composites have been designed and synthesized to investigate photocatalytic performance. Various physicochemical techniques characterized their structural, nanomorphological, and optical properties. These results demonstrated the existence of NiFeLDH particles on the surface of PSO and the strong interaction between NiFeLDH and PSO. The photocatalytic performance was much increased in the case of PSO@NiFeLDH as compared to that of Pt-modified PSO because of the synergistic effect between PSO and NiFeLDH. Remarkably, PSO@NiFeLDH-15 exhibits the highest photocatalytic activity with a rate of 52.8 mmol h-1 g-1 at an optimal content without a Pt cocatalyst under visible light irradiation.

Abstract
Porous organic polymers (POPs) have drawn significant attention in diverse applications. However, factors affecting the heterogeneous polymerization and porosity of POPs are still not well understood. Herein, we report a new strategy to construct porous organophosphorus polymers (POPPs) with high surface areas (1283 m2/g) and ultramicroporous structures (0.67 nm). The strategy harnesses an efficient transition-metal-catalyzed phosphorus-carbon (P-C) coupling reaction at the trigonal pyramidal P-center, which is distinct from the typical carbon-carbon coupling reaction utilized in the synthesis of POPs. As the first kinetic study on the coupling reaction of POPs, we uncovered a self-accelerating reaction characteristic, which is controlled by the choice of bases and catalysts. The self-accelerating characteristic of the P-C coupling reaction is beneficial for the high surface area and uniform ultramicroporosity of POPPs. The direct crosslinking of the P-centers allows 31P solid-state (ss)NMR experiments to unambiguously reveal the crosslinking environments of POPPs. Leveraging on the kinetic studies and 31P ssNMR studies, we were able to reveal the kinetic effects of the P-C coupling reaction on both the crosslinking environments and the porous structures of POPPs. Furthermore, our studies show that the CO2 uptake capacity of POPPs is highly dependent on their porous structures. Overall, our studies paves the way to design new POPs with better controlled chemical and ultramicroporous structures, which have potential applications for CO2 capture and separation.

Abstract
Synthetic conditions for the zeolitic octahedral metal oxide based on vanadotungstate are studied. The temperature, time, acidity, W/V ratio, cation species, and concentration affect the resulting materials. The study shows that mixing tungstate and VO2+ in an aqueous solution generates cubane units ([W4O16]8-) at room temperature. The cubane units assemble with VO2+ immediately to form a solid with an amorphous phase and nonporosity, which further crystallizes under a hydrothermal condition to form the crystalline microporous vanadotungstate. The zeolitic vanadotungstates act as effective adsorbents for the separation of propylene/propane. The active materials effectively separate propylene/propane even at high temperatures and high humidities.

Abstract
Catalysts play a pivotal role in achieving the global need for food and energy. In this context, porous organic polymers (POPs) with high surface area, robust architecture, tunable pore size, and chemical functionalities have emerged as promising testbeds for heterogeneous catalysis. Amorphous POPs having functionalized interconnected hierarchical porous structures activate a diverse range of substrates through covalent/non-covalent interactions or act as a host matrix to encapsulate catalytically active metal centers. On the other hand, conjugated POPs have been explored for photoinduced chemical transformations. In this personal account, we have delineated the evolution of various POPs and the specific role of pores and pore functionalities in heterogeneous catalysis. Subsequently, we retrospect our journey over the last ten years towards designing and fabricating amorphous POPs for heterogeneous catalysis, specifically photocatalytic reactive oxygen species (ROS)-mediated organic transformations and nonredox chemical fixation of CO2 . We have also outlined some of the future avenues of POPs and POP-based hybrid materials for diverse catalytic applications.
