1e:T43b,The complex environment of living organisms significantly challenges the selectivity of classic small-molecule fluorescent probes for bioimaging. Due to their predesigned topological structure and engineered internal pore surface, covalent organic frameworks (COFs) have the ability to filter out coexisting interference components and help to achieve accurate biosensing. Herein, we propose an effective interference-resistant strategy by creating a COF-based hybrid probe that combines the respective advantages of COFs and small-molecule probes. As a proof of concept, a two-photon fluorescent COF nanoprobe, namely TpASH-NPHS, is developed for targeting hydrogen sulfide (H₂S) as a model analyte. TpASH-NPHS exhibits limited cytotoxicity, excellent photostability and long-term bioimaging capability. More importantly, compared with the small-molecule probe, TpASH-NPHS achieves accurate detection without the interference from intracellular enzymes. This allows us to monitor the levels of endogenous H₂S in a mouse model of cirrhosis.1f:T401,Low temperature and atmospheric pressure plasma-induced polymerization was demonstrated as a fast and facile strategy for tailoring of packing phase of COF-1 as well as preparing diverse covalent organic frameworks (COFs) including both two-dimensional (2D) COFs and three-dimensional (3D) COFs. By regulating the solvents, the fast construction of well-ordered AB staggered COF-1 and AA eclipsed COF-1 was facilely realized in minutes. The plasma approach presented here led to the rapid preparation of eight classical 2D COFs, including boronate ester-linkage (COF-5, COF-8 and COF-10), azine-linkage (NUS-2), β-ketoenamine-linkage (TpPa, TPBD), imine-linkage (ILCOF-1, Py-COF), and 3D-COF-102 (boroxine linkage) in less than 1 hour. Different from conventional methods, the proposed methodology required much less time, lower power, no extra heating, inert-gas protection and pressure. The fast nucleation and growth of COFs with good crystallinity, morphology and thermal stability can be achieved under mild conditions.
