Immobilization of ionic liquids to covalent organic frameworks for catalyzing the formylation of amines with CO2 and phenylsilane†
Abstract
We presented the immobilization of ionic liquids on the channel walls of COFs using a post-synthetic strategy. The ionic [Et4NBr]50%-Py-COF afforded a high CO2 adsorption capacity of 164.6 mg gā1 (1 bar, 273 K) and was developed as an effective heterogeneous catalyst for the transformation of CO2 into value-added formamides under ambient conditions.
