Two-dimensional covalent organic frameworks (2D COFs) are commonly synthesised through dynamic covalent chemistry, as it allows for thermodynamic ‘error correction' which enhances crystallinity. Here a crystalline 2D COF with amine and hydroxyl functional groups within the pores is synthesised through kinetically-controlled reactions.
