Enhanced Catalytic Activity through the Tuning of Micropore Environment and Supercritical CO<sub>2</sub> Processing: Al(Porphyrin)-Based Porous Organic Polymers for the Degradation of a Nerve Agent Simulant
An AlÂ(porphyrin) functionalized with
a large axial ligand was incorporated
into a porous organic polymer (POP) using a cobalt-catalyzed acetylene
trimerization strategy. Removal of the axial ligand afforded a microporous
POP that is catalytically active in the methanolysis of a nerve agent
simulant. Supercritical CO<sub>2</sub> processing of the POP dramatically
increased the pore size and volume, allowing for significantly higher
catalytic activities
