Abstract

In this work, a 2D covalent organometallic nanosheet (COMS) was designed and successfully synthesized through the one-step conjunction of a terpyridine-metal-terpyridine (TMT) sandwich coordinate motif with borate ester covalent heterocyclic (B3O3) linkage via the condensation of boronic acid. The obtained 2D COMS with a cobalt coordination center (2D COMS-Co) showed promising p-type semiconducting properties.
