Abstract
We present a new class of on-surface covalent reactions, formed between diborylene-3,4,9,10-tetraaminoperylene and trimesic acid on Cu(111), which gives rise to a porous 2D-'sponge'. This aperiodic network allowed the investigation of the dependence of electron confinement effects upon pore size, shape and even in partial confinement.

We previously reported the synthesis of N,N0;N00,N0 0 0-diborylene3,4,9,10-tetraaminoperylene derivatives (DIBOTAPs), which contain two borylene groups (BR) (Fig. 1).[8]
