Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of coordination polymers, specifically relating to a novel metal quinoline covalent organic framework and its preparation method, as well as its application in photocatalytic olefin carbonyl reduction cross-coupling. Background Technology

[0002] Photocatalysis offers a promising pathway to upgrading industrial chemical manufacturing because its mild reaction conditions and low energy consumption enable more sustainable and environmentally friendly processes. A key factor determining photocatalytic performance is the efficiency of the catalyst in exciton generation, exciton separation into charge carriers, and subsequent transport to the catalytic center. Long lifetimes are often crucial for efficient exciton separation. A popular design principle for extending exciton lifetime is to construct donor-acceptor (DA) structures with spatially separated distributions between the highest occupied molecular orbitals (HOMO) and the lowest unoccupied molecular orbitals (LUMO).

[0003] As a representative example, covalent organic frameworks (COFs) are emerging crystalline porous materials with structural designability, allowing the integration of D and A moieties into their lattice to extend exciton lifetimes. Currently, the exciton lifetimes of COF-based photocatalysts range from 1 to 800 ps, ​​which is still insufficient for effective charge separation. This is because most COFs are purely organic materials, leading to the following problems: The low dielectric constant of COFs results in exciton binding energies as high as 100 to 2000 meV, while the weak coupling between the π orbitals of localized electrons leads to low charge transfer rates and increased recombination opportunities during charge separation. Furthermore, the dominant excited states of COFs are short-lived singlet excitons, along with high-energy and widely distributed charge transfer states that readily undergo nonradiative recombination. In summary, these limitations make achieving long-lived excitons in COFs for effective charge separation quite challenging.

[0004] Metal complexes have become promising material design platforms due to their unique metal-ligand charge transfer (MLCT) state. The strong coupling between the d orbitals of the metal center and the π orbitals of the ligands significantly promotes electron delocalization and lowers the exciton binding energy, thereby promoting charge separation and suppressing recombination. Therefore, incorporating metal complexes into COFs can, in principle, overcome the inherent problems of COFs and generate long-lived excitons for charge separation. For example, aromatic heterocyclic compounds quinolines have been studied for providing long-lived excitons in small-molecule organic photocatalysts. Furthermore, nitrogen atoms can coordinate with metal ions to form metal-quinoline complexes. Utilizing the MLCT state, the light absorption range of metal-quinoline complexes can be broadened from the ultraviolet region to the visible light region, and the exciton lifetime can be further extended. In addition, through the electronic regulation of quinoline ligands, metal-quinoline complexes can exhibit (quasi-)reversible multi-electron transfer pathways under illumination, providing feasibility for complex single / multi-electron photocatalytic reactions. However, reports on the incorporation of metal quinolines into COFs are scarce, with only a few works mentioning the synthesis of quinoline-based COFs. Further research on incorporating metal ions into the quinoline-based COF framework or incorporating metal-quinoline complexes into COF channels has not yet been conducted. This is because achieving metal-quinoline chelation while maintaining the COF crystal structure in highly photostable COFs is quite challenging. Once this problem is solved, it will make a significant contribution to the development of metal complex-based porous materials in the field of photocatalysis.

[0005] Here, a challenging olefin-carbonyl reduction cross-coupling reaction was completed using metal quinoline COF as a photocatalyst. This reaction not only exhibits high stability but also significant conversion efficiency across a wide range of substrates, providing new insights into the design of metal quinoline-incorporated COFs with long-lived excitons for photochemistry.

Additionally, the presence of this feature at 1717 cm⁻¹ in the quinoline covalent organic framework further supports this. −1 The characteristic peak at the point is attributed to the stretching vibration of the C=O group in the carboxylic acid on the quinoline ring, confirming the conversion of imine to quinoline.

The proposed model was refined using the Pawley refinement method, and the cell parameters were obtained as follows: a = b = 36.5745 Å, c = 3.6569 Å, α = β = 90°, γ = 120°, R wp = 5.33% and R p = 4.28%. Furthermore, the experimental PXRD pattern of the quinoline covalent organic framework (QL-COF) showed good consistency with the simulated pattern, maintaining high crystallinity. Strong peaks appeared at 2.81°, 4.93°, 5.69°, and 7.42°, corresponding to the (100), (110), (200), and (210) crystal planes, respectively.

[0045] Figure 5 HAADF-STEM image of Fe-QL-COF obtained in Example 3 of this invention; as can be seen from the image, the metal exhibits a single-atom dispersion in the structure.

[0046] Figure 6The XANES and EXAFS spectra of the Fe-QL-COF sample obtained in Example 3 of this invention are shown in the left figure. Comparing the XANES spectra of the example and the two standard references (Fe foil and FePc), the XANES curves of Fe-QL-COF show similar contours, indicating similar local coordination geometry. In the EXAFS spectrum of the right figure, the Fe-N / O peaks in Fe-QL-COF are close to those in Fe2O3 and FePc.

[0047] Figure 7 The 2D-mapped fs-TA spectra of the covalent organic frameworks obtained in Examples 3 and 2 of this invention are shown in Figures 1, 2, and 3. Figure 1 shows the 2D-mapped fs-TA spectrum of the Fe-QL-COF film, and Figure 2 shows the 2D-mapped fs-TA spectrum of the QL-COF film. As can be seen from the figures, after excitation at 350 nm, the initially recorded fs-TA spectrum in the Fe-QL-COF film consists of a negative band in the range of 360 to 500 nm and a positive band that peaks at 550 nm. The former negative band is attributed to ground-state bleaching (GSB). This is consistent with the comparison of the steady-state absorption spectra, while the positive band is related to excited-state absorption (ESA). The fs-TA spectrum of QL-COF is similar to that of Fe-QL-COF.

As can be seen from the figure, by fitting the kinetic curve at 550 nm, the ESA lifetimes of Fe-QL-COF and QL-COF are estimated to be approximately 43,000 ps and 12,000 ps, ​​respectively. It should be noted that due to the limitations of instrument detection, the maximum lifetime value we measured experimentally was 8,000 ps.

[0063] 1) Infrared images of covalent organic framework samples obtained using amino monomers and aldehyde monomers.

[0064] The obtained sample was first dried in a vacuum oven at 60°C, and then infrared testing was performed on the sample.

[0065] 2) The crystallography of the covalent organic framework sample was measured using X-ray diffraction (PXRD).

[0074] 6) Femtosecond transient absorption spectroscopy (fs-TA) measurement of covalent organic framework samples

[0075] Femtosecond transient absorption spectroscopy (fs-TA) measurements were performed using a self-made femtosecond pump-probe setup. A Ti:sapphire femtosecond laser system provided the laser pulses for the femtosecond transient absorption measurements. A regenerative amplifier (Spectra Physics, Spitfire) equipped with a mode-locked Ti:sapphire laser (Spectra Physics, Tsunami) output a laser pulse at a wavelength of 800 nm (150 fs, 1 kHz), which was then split into two parts using a 9:1 beam splitter. The primary part was fed into a TOPAS Prime (LightConversion) to generate a pump pulse (350 nm, 150 fs, 1 kHz). The secondary part was further attenuated and focused onto a 3 mm calcium fluoride plate to generate a probe pulse. An ultraviolet filter was inserted into the probe beam to select the ultraviolet-visible probe beam (360–680 nm). The time delay between the pump beam and the probe beam was adjusted using a computer-controlled motorized translation stage in the pump beam. The time resolution between the pump pulse and the probe pulse was determined to be ~150 fs (FWHM). Transmitted light was detected using a CMOS linear image sensor. The excitation pulse energy measured at the sampling point was approximately 0.4 μJ cm⁻¹. −2 Spectrophotometry was used to check the stability of the samples before and after each experiment. The kinetic trajectories obtained from time-resolved spectra were analyzed, and a nonlinear least-squares fitting method was used to deconvolve the instrument response function (IRF) to obtain a general exponential function. All spectroscopic measurements were performed at room temperature.
