Collection: Boronic Acid Linkers [Covalent Organic Frameworks (COFs) Linkers]
Boronic Acid Linkers [Covalent Organic Frameworks (COFs) Linkers] — gathers difunctional and monofunctional boronic acids such as biphenyldiboronate, phenylenediboronate, and formylphenylboronate, which act as linkers forming boroxine or boronate ester bonds in covalent organic frameworks. Their boronate groups enable reversible condensation with diol groups or other boronates.
These boronic acid linkers are used by materials chemists to assemble porous covalent organic frameworks (COFs) through boronate condensation reactions, and as starting materials for synthesizing gas-adsorbing materials and heterogeneous catalysts. The formyl groups in some compounds also allow further modification through imine reactions.
Example products in this collection: TCI B2490 4151-80-8 4,4'-Biphenyldiboronic Acid, TCI D4701 866100-14-3 (9,9-Dimethyl-9H-fluorene-2,7-diyl)diboronic Acid (contains varying amounts of Anhydride), TCI P1358 4612-26-4 1,4-Phenylenediboronic Acid (contains varying amounts of Anhydride), TCI F0445 87199-16-4 3-Formylphenylboronic Acid (contains varying amounts of Anhydride), TCI F1079 871126-22-6 2-Fluoro-4-formylphenylboronic Acid (contains varying amounts of Anhydride), TCI F0446 87199-17-5 4-Formylphenylboronic Acid (contains varying amounts of Anhydride), TCI F1051 248270-25-9 3-Fluoro-4-formylphenylboronic Acid (contains varying amounts of Anhydride).
Pay attention to the number and position of boronate groups (mono- or difunctional) as well as the possible anhydride content of the boronic acids, as these affect the stoichiometry of framework formation. All products are genuine products of Tokyo Chemical Industry (TCI) Japan, with purity, packaging, and storage conditions listed on each item's page.
