Triethanolamine-activated imine-linked covalent organic frameworks for highly efficient NADH generation
Key Points
This research aims to explore the activation mechanism of imine-linked covalent organic frameworks (COFs) for NADH generation.
Investigated the activation of imine-linked COFs with triethanolamine under light irradiation
Assessed the role of triethanolamine as an electron and proton donor
Examined the effects of non-acidic conditions on the activation process
Demonstrated reversible activation of COFs under specified conditions
Showed efficient NADH generation achieved through the mechanism
Highlighted the dual role of triethanolamine in the activation process
Abstract
We present a reversible activation mechanism of imine-linked COFs under non-acidic conditions with triethanolamine under light irradiation, in which TEOA functions as both an electron and proton donor.
