Article Abstract
The capture of radioactive iodine and recovery of precious metal gold have become hot research topics in recent years. Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) linked by imine bonds are ideal adsorbents for iodine and gold due to their abundance of N sites. The N site as an electron-deficient group has been well-discussed; therefore, in the present work, we explored the effect of its conjugation degree on gold and iodine adsorption by modulating the electron-rich unit. As the degree of donor conjugation increases (COF-Be, COF-Na, and COF-An), the adsorption of gold rises (492.0, 711.3, and 1080.7 mg/g), which is the opposite for iodine (3.8, 2.9, and 2.02 g/g). By characterization and theoretical calculations, the increase in the conjugation degree enhances the reduction of gold by COFs. In contrast, the decrease in the density of N sites and the decrease in the pore volume led to a decrease in the adsorption capacity for iodine. The work clarifies the differences in the adsorption processes of gold and iodine by these three COFs and provides a new idea to optimize the adsorption capacity of gold by adjusting the degree of donor conjugation of COFs.

The functionality of covalent organic frameworks (COFs) is usually highly related to their morphologies. Among various morphologies, the hollow-structured COFs have recently attracted intense attention due to their unique properties. Herein, the synthesis of hollow structured COFs are first reported with the chiral internal sites via combining the chiral templating method with the acid etching approach.

Three-dimensional printing (3DP) technology enables the flexible fabrication of integrated monolithic microextraction chips for high-throughput sample pretreatment. Meanwhile, the extraction performance of 3DP-based channels is largely limited by printer resolution and the commercially available printing materials. In this work, a 3DP array monolithic microextraction chip (AMC) was fabricated by integrating 26-array helical monolithic microextraction channels for sample pretreatment and 52-array gas valves for fluid control.

Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) have great potential as versatile platforms for proton conduction. However, the commonly applied 2D COFs that are easy to design and synthesize have only 1D channels for proton conduction, limiting the formation of continuous hydrogen bonds due to the anisotropy between their crystalline grains. Herein, we report a strategy to construct 3D channels in 2D COFs by using rotaxane structures and eliminate the strong interlayer π-π interactions, facilitating the formation of smooth 3D proton-transfer pathways during guest doping.

Breast cancer is the most prevalent malignancy worldwide, yet conventional therapies are invasive and prone to resistance, recurrence, and metastasis. Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a promising noninvasive modality, but its efficacy is limited by tumor hypoxia and poor photosensitizer delivery. Here, we report a photoacoustic-imaging nanomotor, PPIC, which addresses these challenges through integrated functions of oxygen production, deep tissue penetration and photoacoustic imaging.

Decades of antibiotic misuse have spurred an antimicrobial resistance crisis, creating an urgent demand for alternative treatment options. Although phototherapy has therapeutic potential, the efficacy of the most advanced photosensitizers (PS) is essentially limited by aggregation-induced quenching, which significantly reduces their therapeutic effect. To address these challenges, we developed a cationic metallocovalent organic framework (CRuP-COF) via a solvent-mediated dual-reaction synthesis strategy.
