Abstract: | Two new pyrene‐cored covalent organic polymers (COPs), CK‐COP‐1 and CK‐COP‐2 , were synthesized via the one‐step polymerization of two thiophene‐based isomers, 1,3,6,8‐tetra(thiophene‐2‐yl) pyrene ( L1 ) and 1,3,6,8‐tetra(thiophene‐3‐yl) pyrene ( L2 ). The resulting pyrene‐cored COPs exhibit rather different surface areas of 54 m2 g?1 and 615 m2g?1 for CK‐COP‐1 and CK‐COP‐2 , respectively. The CO2 uptake capacities of CK‐COP‐1 and CK‐COP‐2 also show different values of 2.85 and 9.73 wt % at 273 K, respectively. Furthermore, CK‐COP‐2 offers not only a larger CO2 adsorption capacity but also a better CO2/CH4 selectivity at 273 K compared with CK‐COP‐1 . CK‐COP‐1 and CK‐COP‐2 also exhibit considerable differences in their photophysical property. The different structure and properties of CK‐COPs could be attributed to the isomer effect of their corresponding thiophene‐based monomers. © 2017 Authors.
