Since the first synthesis of graphdiyne (GDY), it has been widely receiving a lot of attention and has great application prospects in many fields, such as energy storage, catalysis, and sensing. However, the complex deprotection treatment and long reaction time limit its mass production and applications. Here, we present a strategy for the silver-catalyzed deprotection-free rapid synthesis of GDY. Crystalline GDY was synthesized in 8 h at room temperature and atmospheric pressure, and after the reaction, Ag nanoparticles with an ultrathin diameter of 2-3 nm were formed in situ inside and on the surface of GDY. This Ag/GDY composite exhibits a high specific surface area of 672.3 m2 g-1 and strong surface plasmon resonance behavior, showing a strong surface-enhanced Raman scattering effect. The enhancement factor and the lowest detection limit for rhodamine 6G are 3.54 × 108 and 1 × 10-14 M, respectively. The Ag/GDY achieves the simultaneous enrichment and detection of polychlorophenols and ultrafine nanoplastics.
