Holey Heterographenes Made to Order: “Green” Synthesis of Porous Graphitic Frameworks

Fully annulated pyrazine-linked porous graphitic frameworks (PGFs) have garnered attention because of their potential applications in optoelectronics and energy storage. In this issue of Chem, Zhang, Liu, and co-workers report a base-promoted aqueous synthesis of such porous heterographenes with high crystallinity and application potential as cathodes in lithium-ion batteries.
