Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) are a versatile class of porous polymers that exhibit exceptional tunability and electronic properties, making them attractive for various applications including water splitting [1], solar batteries [2] or other optoelectronic applications. We investigated the electronic properties of a naphthalene diimide (NDI)-based COF, which demonstrates robust photoinduced charge separation in aqueous environments, by using density functional theory (DFT) calculations. We provide theoretical insights into the stability of the charges in NDI-based COFs under hydrated conditions, highlighting their potential for advanced electronic and material applications. For this, we determined the formation of a stable radical on the NDI unit through the addition of a hydrogen atom. Further modeling of interactions of small water clusters with the COF indicated the emergence of a radical anion on the NDI, accompanied by the stabilization of H+ in an H2O cluster.
