Abstract:
Porphyrin covalent organic nanodisks (CONs) were synthesized by exfoliating covalent organic frameworks (COFs) in acidic aqueous solutions at pH 4. The synthesized CONs showed remarkable bactericidal activity against Escherichia coli owing to enhanced generation of singlet oxygen upon visible light irradiation.
