Exploiting Noncovalent Interactions in an Imine‐Based Covalent Organic Framework for Quercetin Delivery

Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) are a new class of nanoporous polymeric vector showing promise as drug-delivery vehicles with high loading capacity and biocompatibility. The interaction between the carrier and the cargo is specifically tailored on a molecular level by H-bonding. Cell-proliferation studies indicate higher efficacy of the drug in cancer cells by nanocarrier delivery mediated by the COF.
