A two‐dimensional (2D) sp2‐carbon‐linked conjugated polymer framework (2D CCP‐HATN) has a nitrogen‐doped skeleton, a periodical dual‐pore structure and high chemical stability. The polymer backbone consists of hexaazatrinaphthalene (HATN) and cyanovinylene units linked entirely by carbon–carbon double bonds. Profiting from the shape‐persistent framework of 2D CCP‐HATN integrated with the electrochemical redox‐active HATN and the robust sp2 carbon‐carbon linkage, 2D CCP‐HATN hybridized with carbon nanotubes shows a high capacity of 116 mA h g−1, with high utilization of its redox‐active sites and superb cycling stability (91 % after 1000 cycles) and rate capability (82 %, 1.0 A g−1 vs. 0.1 A g−1) as an organic cathode material for lithium‐ion batteries.

Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) are crystalline porous materials bearing microporous or mesoporous pores. The type and size of pores play crucial roles in regulating the properties of COFs. In this work, a novel COF, which bears two different kinds of ordered pores with controllable sizes: one within microporous range (7.1 Å) and the other in mesoporous range (26.9 Å), has been constructed via one-step synthesis. The structure of the dual-pore COF was confirmed by PXRD investigation, nitrogen adsorption-desorption study, and theoretical calculations.

It is very important to create novel topologies and improve structural complexity for covalent organic frameworks (COFs) that might lead to unprecedented properties and applications. Despite the progress achieved over the past decade, the structural diversity and complexity of COFs are quite limited. In this Communication, we report the construction of COFs bearing three different kinds of pores through the heterostructural mixed linker strategy involving the condensation of a D2h-symmetric tetraamine and two C2-symmetric dialdehydes of different lengths. The complicated structures of the triple-pore COFs have been confirmed by powder X-ray diffraction and pore size distribution analyses.
