5.1 Introduction

Design and synthesis of porous materials are an important aspect of chemistry and materials science. Recent progress over the past three decades in polymer chemistry has made great effects on the molecular design and synthesis of porous polymers [1–6]. Especially, the advancement in designing porous polymers with organic building blocks has greatly increased the accessibility of porous architecture and expanded the structural scope of porous polymers [7–11]. Porous organic polymers ...
