Herein, we describe an ew class of porous composites comprising metal-organic framework (MOF) crystals confined in single spherical matrices made of packed covalentorganic framework (COF) nanocrystals.T hese MOF@COF composites are synthesized through at wo-step method of spray-drying and subsequent amorphous (imine-based polymer)-to-crystalline (imine-based COF) transformation. This transformation around the MOF crystals generates micro-and mesopores at the MOF/COF interface that provide far superior porosity compared to that of the constituent MOF and COF components added together.W er eport that water sorption in these new pores occurs within the same pressure window as in the COF pores.O ur new MOF@COF composites,w ith their additional pores at the MOF/COF interface,s hould have implications for the development of new composites.
