Alena's and Juliane's paper is now out! By matching linker sizes we could show that disordered mixed ternary phases form, as well as molecularly defined heteroepitaxial interfaces between COFs. @jacs.acspublications.org

Evidence of Heteroepitaxy and Solid Solutions in Lattice Matched Ternary Covalent Organic Framework Systems
Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) are crystalline, porous materials with the possibility for broad applications, but their structural diversity remains constrained by simple net topologies, limiting ...

Today I am talking in my reticular materials class about the stability of MOFs, where I show this great figure of stability in phosphate buffer. It is always important to specify that stable means in what context! From this great paper: pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/...

This does seem very 1950s.

Looking into reliable and longterm spectroscopic data storage I realized the ubiquity of the JCAMP-DX files.
But why are they so complicated. Why not a good old X-Y file?
I can imagine an digital archeologist finding these in 100 years and rolling their eyes.

#chemchat #chemsky I need your recommendation for a very high boiling point solvent that can be used at 300C. Ph2O is not high enough (it goes to around 250C). Cannot be protic, cannot have amines. It doesn't need to be a liquid at room temp. Ideas?

I literally cannot understand how it is possible to generate data like this. Even if the data is manipulated/fake how would you ever get these odd curves. In some sense the curve looks hand draw, but even then it would be strange to have that shape.

Can someone help me figure out what kind of reaction this is supposed to be? #ChemSky #ChemChat

Organic Chemists: If you can buy it, you can also make it.

My opinion: If you can buy it, don't make it.
Your salary, time spent on optimization & synthesis and the unseen cost of solvents, consumables and equipment justify buying even expensive chemicals in most cases.

I had a great time speaking at Martin Luther University in Halle, Germany, this week. Halle an der Saale is a beautiful city (it was hardly bombed!), and my host, @frederikhaase.bsky.social, showed me some mind-blowing stuff he's doing with COFs.

Why does everything have to be a puzzle and a mystery. Why can't nature from time tell me what is going on.

If you ever decide you want to make a COF for the first time, this one should be your first try. It is somewhat known in the community, but you will not really learn this from the literature this COF system is one of the most robust, in terms of synthesis and activation conditions.
