Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) are emerging porous polymers that have 2D or 3D long-range ordering. Currently available COFs are typically insoluble or decompose upon dissolution, which remarkably restricts their practical implementations. For 3D COFs, the achievement of noninterpenetration, which maximizes their porosity-derived applications, also remains a challenge synthetically. Here, we report the synthesis of the first highly water-soluble 3D COF (sCOF-101) from irreversible polymerization of a preorganized supramolecular organic framework through cucurbit[8]uril (CB[8])-controlled [2 + 2] photodimerization. Synchrotron X-ray scattering and diffraction analyses confirm that sCOF-101 exhibits porosity periodicity, with a channel diameter of 2.3 nm, in both water and the solid state and retains the periodicity under both strongly acidic and basic conditions. As an ordered 3D polymer, sCOF-101 can enrich [Ru(bpy)₃]²⁺ photosensitizers and redox-active polyoxometalates in water, which leads to remarkable increase of their photocatalytic activity for proton reduction to produce H₂.
