Time-efficient synthetic methods of porous organic polymers are searched in order to extend the applications of those materials. In this work, we show a robust and time-efficient synthetic method of azo-linked porous organic polymers named Azo-POPs based on a NaBH4-mediated reductive coupling polymerization on well-known polynitro monomors. Azo-POPs were found to have high Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) surface area and potential for aniline adsorption. Interestingly, Azo-POP-1 showed adsorption towards aniline as high as 1059.68 mg.g-1 at 293K, which outperformed absorbent materials reported in literature.
