The nature of the linkage (imine, boroxine, vinyl, etc.) between these building blocks naturally also defines their properties. However, besides the linkage type, the orientation, i.e., the constitutional isomerism of these linkages, has rarely been considered so far as an essential aspect. In this work, three pairs of constitutionally isomeric imine-linked donor-acceptor (D-A) COFs are synthesized, which are different in the orientation of the imine bonds (D-C=N-A (DCNA) and D-N=C-A (DNCA)). The constitutional isomers show substantial differences in their photophysical properties and consequently in their photocatalytic performance. Indeed, all DCNA COFs show enhanced photocatalytic H2 evolution performance than the corresponding DNCA COFs. Besides the imine COFs shown here, it can be concluded that the proposed concept of constitutional isomerism of linkages in COFs is quite universal and should be considered when designing and tuning the properties of COFs.

IFPs were synthesized by in situ partial hydrolysis of a 4,5-dicyanoimidazole under solvothermal conditions and hence an imidazolate-4-amide-5-imidate linker (C5H3N4O2) was generated, forming the metal -amide-imidate-imidazolateframeworks [M(C5H3N4O2)-R]. Varying R in the 2-substitued linker (R = Me, Cl, Br, Et, OMe and OEt) and metal centre (M2+ = zinc and cobalt) allowed the variation in channel diameter (4.2-03 angstrom) and a fine-tuning of the polarity and functionality of the channel walls of IFPs. Furthermore, we show that using ethyl or alkoxy substituted IFPs the flexible groups act as molecular gates for guest molecules. This allows highly selective CO2 sorption over Ny and CH4 gases. Moreover, during the synthesis of methoxy substituted IFPs (IFP-7 and -8), an imidazolate-4,5-diamide-2-olate linker (C5H4N4O3) formed in situ leads to the formation of a molecular building block (MBB) with a M-6 octahedron inscribed in a M-8 cube (M Zn2+ and Co2+). The MBBs connect by amide amide hydrogen bonds to a 3D robust supramolecular networks [Zn-14(C5H4N4O3)(12)(O) (OH)(2) (DMF)(4) denoted as 1 and 2, respectively, DMF = N,N'-dimethylformamide], which can be activated for N-2, CO2, CH4, and H-2 gas-sorption.

All experimental isotherms can be nicely described by using the Toth isotherm model and show the preferred adsorption of CO2 over CH4. At low pressures the Toth isotherm equation exhibits a Henry region, wherefore Henry's law constants for CO2 and CH4 uptake could be determined and ideal selectivity (alpha CO2/CH4) has been calculated. Secondly, selectivities were calculated from mixture data by using nearly equimolar binary mixtures of both gases by a volumetric-chromatographic method to examine the IFPs. Results showed the reliability of the selectivity calculation. Values of (alpha CO2/CH4) around 7.5 for IFP-5 indicate that this material shows much better selectivities than IFP-1, IFP-2, IFP-3, IFP-4 and IFP-6 with slightly lower selectivity (alpha CO2/CH4) = 4-6. The preferred adsorption of CO2 over CH4 especially of IFP-5 and IFP-4 makes these materials suitable for gas separation application.
