- The design and synthesis of three-dimensional covalent organic frameworks (3D COFs) have still been considered as a big challenge. Here we report the design and synthesis of an AIEgen-based 3D COF (3D-TPE-COF), with a high surface area (1084 m(2)g(-1)). According to powder X-ray diffraction and continuous rotation electron diffraction analyses, 3D-TPE-COF is identified to adopt a seven-fold interpenetrated pts topology. Interestingly, 3D-TPE-COF emits yellow fluorescence upon excitation, with a photoluminescence quantum yield of 20%. Moreover, by simply coating 3D-TPE-COF onto a commercial blue light-emitting diode (LED), a prototype white LED (WLED) under continuously driving without degradation for 1200 h was demonstrated. The present work suggests the possibility of using COF materials for stable WLEDs, which will greatly inspire us to design and synthesize fluorescent 3D COFs and facilitate the development of COF-based WLEDs in future.

- Herein, we reported the designed synthesis of three isostructural three-dimensional covalent organic frameworks (3D COFs) with -H, -Me, or -F substituents, which have similar crystallinity and topology. Their crystal structures were determined by continuous rotation electron diffraction (cRED), and all three 3D COFs were found to adopt a fivefold interpenetrated pts topology. More importantly, the resolution of these cRED datasets reached up to 0.9-1.0 angstrom, enabling the localization of all non-hydrogen atomic positions in a COF framework directly by 3D ED techniques for the first time. In addition, the precise control of the pore environments through the use of different functional groups led to different selectivities for CO2 over N-2. We have thus confirmed that polycrystalline COFs can be definitely studied to the atomic level as other materials, and this study should also inspire the design and synthesis of 3D COFs with tailored pore environments for interesting applications.

- The construction of three-dimensional covalent organic frameworks (3D COFs) has proven to be very challenging, as their synthetic driving force mainly comes from the formation of covalent bonds. To facilitate the synthesis, rigid building blocks are always the first choice for designing 3D COFs. In principle, it should be very appealing to construct 3D COFs from flexible building blocks, but there are some obstacles blocking the development of such systems, especially for the designed synthesis and structure determination. Herein, we reported a novel highly crystalline 3D COF (FCOF-5) with flexible C–O single bonds in the building block backbone. By merging 17 continuous rotation electron diffraction data sets, we successfully determined the crystal structure of FCOF-5 to be a 6-fold interpenetrated pts topology. Interestingly, FCOF-5 is flexible and can undergo reversible expansion/contraction upon vapor adsorption/desorption, indicating a breathing motion. Moreover, a smart soft polymer composite film with FCOF-5 was fabricated, which can show a reversible vapor-triggered shape transformation. Therefore, 3D COFs constructed from flexible building blocks can exhibit interesting breathing behavior, and finally, a totally new type of soft porous crystals made of pure organic framework was announced.
