Covalent linkages are the key component of covalent organic frameworks (COFs) and the development of stable and functional linkages is essential to broaden their application prospects. Here, the authors report the synthesis of crystalline and ultrastable 4-carboxyl-quinoline linked COFs via Doebner reactions in both one-pot and post-synthetic modification methods and demonstrate application of the COFs in nanofiltration.
