Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of organic material preparation, specifically relating to a polymetallic phthalocyanine-based porous organic material prepared by the 4-dimethylaminopyridine hot-melt method, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology
[0002] Porous organic polymers (POPs) are framework materials composed of lightweight elements linked by covalent bonds. Based on the degree of order in their pore structure, they can be classified into amorphous and crystalline types. They possess advantages such as high designability, abundant pore structures, high thermal and chemical stability, and ease of functionalization, making them promising candidates for applications in gas adsorption, heterogeneous catalysis, energy storage, and biomedicine. Phthalocyanines are macrocyclic compounds with an 18π-electron conjugated system. Their excellent coordination ability allows them to form stable metal phthalocyanine complexes (M-Pcs) with most metal ions. These complexes, due to their outstanding redox properties and catalytic activity, have shown significant application value in electrocatalytic carbon dioxide reduction and photocatalytic carbon dioxide cycloaddition. However, molecular M-Pcs often face inherent defects such as molecular aggregation and insufficient stability in practical applications, severely limiting further improvement in their catalytic performance and expansion of their application range. Polymetallic phthalocyanine-based POPs constructed by integrating phthalocyanine units into the POPs framework possess both tunable active sites and excellent structural stability. In particular, the introduction of phthalocyanine units effectively expands the conjugated system of the material and optimizes its electronic structure, thereby significantly improving the electrochemical performance of POPs materials. Currently, the synthesis of polymetallic phthalocyanine-based POPs mainly relies on solvothermal and ionothermal methods catalyzed by organic bases (such as 1,8-diazabicycloundecane-7-ene, DBU). These traditional methods have significant limitations, requiring large amounts of organic solvents and organic base catalysts, and demanding conditions, typically requiring temperatures above 180°C and reaction times exceeding 120 hours. These factors severely limit the large-scale application of polymetallic phthalocyanine-based POPs materials in catalysis. Therefore, developing a new strategy for the mild, efficient, and scalable preparation of polymetallic phthalocyanine-based POPs is of great significance. Summary of the Invention
