A new covalent organic framework (COF) based on imine bonds was assembled from 2-(4-formylphenyl)-5-formylpyridine and 1,3,6,8-tetrakis(4-aminophenyl)pyrene, which showed an interesting dual-pore structure with high crystallinity. Postmetallation of the COF Pt occurred selectively at N donor (imine pyridyl) in larger pores. The metallated served as excellent recyclable heterogeneous photocatalyst for decarboxylative difluoroalkylation oxidative cyclization reactions.
