Octaaminonaphthalene and a method of synthesizing octaaminonaphthalene are described. A two-dimensional coordination polymer and a method of synthesizing the two-dimensional coordination polymer are described. The two-dimensional coordination polymer includes ligands including anchorage sites, and metal linkers, each metal linker including a metal and an organic moiety. Each metal linker is coupled to two ligands via the anchorage sites. Synthesizing the two-dimensional coordination polymer includes contacting a first liquid precursor with a second liquid precursor at an interface, reacting the metal linker and the water-soluble ligand to yield a two-dimensional coordination polymer at the interface, and removing the two-dimensional coordination polymer from the interface.

Two-dimensional coordination polymers

A two-dimensional metal-organic framework (2D MOF) includes a first transition metal Mand a second transition metal M. The first transition metal and the second transition metal are different and are coupled by a linker group L to yield a two-dimensional metal-organic framework alloy having a formula MML, where 0&#x3c;x&#x3c;1. Each transition metal is dispersed uniformly throughout the 2D MOF. The 2D MOF is synthesized by combining a first transition metal precursor, a second transition metal precursor, and a linker; agitating the solution; and heating the solution to yield a crystalline two-dimensional metal-organic framework alloy.

Two-dimensional metal-organic framework alloy photocatalysts

Forming a two-dimensional polymeric sheet includes translating a portion of a flexible substrate through a first liquid precursor to coat the portion of the flexible substrate with the first liquid precursor, thereby yielding a precursor-coated portion of the flexible substrate. The precursor-coated portion of the flexible substrate is translated through an interface between the first liquid precursor and a second liquid precursor, thereby reacting the first liquid precursor on the precursor-coated portion of the flexible substrate with the second liquid precursor to yield a polymer-coated portion of the flexible substrate.
