Unlike 1D and 3D-networked macromolecules, the synthesis of 2D molecular networks is challenging because of the nature of the polymerisation reaction. Here the authors report the synthesis of polymeric monosheets with unimolecularly thick networks by exploiting the 2D nanospaces of metal–organic frameworks as reaction templates.
