Photocatalytic hydrogen evolution has emerged as a promising strategy for generating clean fuel. Covalent organic framework (COFs), which possess designability, large specific surface area and adjustable energy band, have gradually gained favor among researchers in recent years. However, their hydrogen-evolution activity is often restricted by rapid carrier recombination and limited electron transfer pathways. Although various strategies such as heterojunction construction or skeletal functionalization have been explored, they often involve complex chemical modifications that may compromise the crystallinity. In contrast, the host-guest assembly strategy offers a mild route to modulate optoelectronic properties without destroying the intrinsic porous structure. Here we report a C60@TpPa-(CH3)2-COF composite with a markedly reinforced internal electric field (IEF) to increase the hydrogen-evolution rate. C60 was selected as the guest due to its high electron affinity and size compatibility with the COF pores, acting as an ideal electron acceptor. The TpPa-(CH3)2-COF was synthesized via Schiff-base polycondensation between 2,4,6-triformylphloroglucinol (Tp) and 2,5-dimethyl-p-phenylenediamine (Pa-(CH3)2) in a 1:1.5 molar ratio, using mesitylene and benzyl alcohol as solvents, with anhydrous acetic acid as a catalyst. The reaction mixture underwent freeze-pump-thaw cycles under vacuum before being sealed and heated at 120°C for 72 hours. After cooling, the product was filtered, washed with anhydrous THF, soaked in dry acetone for solvent exchange, and vacuum-dried at 120°C for 12 hours to obtain TpPa-(CH3)2-COF. For C60 encapsulation, 20 mg of the COF was added to a 5 mL saturated C60 solution in o-dichlorobenzene and heated at 60°C for 3 days.
