Covalent Organic Frameworks (COFs) have recently emerged as light‐harvesting devices, as well as elegant heterogeneous catalysts. The combination of these two properties into a dual catalyst has not yet been explored. We report a new photosensitive triazine‐based COF, decorated with single Ni sites to form a dual catalyst. This crystalline and highly porous catalyst shows excellent catalytic performance in the visible‐light‐driven catalytic sulfur–carbon cross‐coupling reaction. Incorporation of single transition metal sites in a photosensitive COF scaffold with two‐component synergistic catalyst in organic transformation is demonstrated for the first time.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
