Abstract:
Condensation of benzene-1,3,5-tricarbohydrazide with benzene-1,4-dicarboxaldehyde generated a new covalent organic framework, COF-ASB (1), in which the organic units are held together via hydrazone linkage to form porous frameworks. COF-ASB (1) is highly crystalline and displays good chemical and thermal stability and is permanently porous. In addition, 1 can be an ideal support to load Ru nanoparticles (Ru NPs) to generate Ru@COF-ASB (2). The obtained composite material is able to highly promote one-pot tandem synthesis of imine products from benzyl alcohols and corresponding amines under solvent-free conditions in air.

Covalent Bonds
Covalent Bonds
When two atoms share electrons to complete their valence shells, they create a covalent bond. An atom's electronegativity—the force with which shared electrons are pulled towards an atom—determines how the electrons are shared. Molecules formed with covalent bonds can be either polar or nonpolar. Atoms with similar electronegativities form nonpolar covalent bonds; the electrons are shared equally. Atoms with different electronegativities share electrons unequally,...
