  "description": "<p>Crystalline and amorphous organic materials are an<br>\nemergent class of heterogeneous photocatalysts for the generation of<br>\nhydrogen from water, but a direct correlation between their structures<br>\nand the resulting properties has not been achieved so far. To make a<br>\nmeaningful comparison between structurally different, yet chemically<br>\nsimilar porous polymers, we present two porous polymorphs of a<br>\ntriazine-based graphdiyene (TzG) framework from a simple, one-pot<br>\nreaction using Cu(I) for TzG<sub>Cu</sub> and Pd(II)/Cu(I) for TzG<sub>Pd/Cu</sub> catalyzed<br>\nhomocoupling polymerization. The polymers form via irreversible<br>\ncoupling reactions and give rise to a crystalline (TzG<sub>Cu</sub>) and an<br>\namorphous (TzG<sub>Pd/Cu</sub>) polymorph. Notably, the crystalline and<br>\namorphous polymorphs are narrow-gap semiconductors with<br>\npermanent surface areas of 660 m<sup>2</sup> g<sup>-1</sup> and 392 m<sup>2</sup> g<sup>-1</sup>, respectively.<br>\nHence, both polymers are ideal heterogeneous photocatalysts for<br>\nwater splitting with some of the highest hydrogen evolution rates<br>\nreported thus far up to 972 &mu;mol h<sup>-1</sup> g<sup>-1</sup> with and 276 &mu;mol h<sup>-1</sup> g<sup>-1</sup><br>\nwithout Pt co-catalyst. We conclude, that crystalline order improves<br>\ndelocalisation, while the amorphous polymorph requires a co-catalyst<br>\nfor efficient charge transfer; this will need to be considered in future<br>\nrational design of polymer catalysts and organic electronics.</p>",
