Redox-active, pyrene-based pristine porous organic polymers for efficient energy storage with exceptional cyclic stability

Abstract

A novel class of pyrene-based conjugated porous organic polymers having an N-containing network was developed by employing Buchwald–Hartwig coupling for supercapacitor energy storage. The pristine polymer was found to exhibit a specific capacitance of 456 F g⁻¹ at 0.5 A g⁻¹ current density with excellent long-term cyclic stability.
