We report the synthesis of two carbazole-thiophene-based conjugated microporous polymers (Cz-3Th and Cz-4Th CMPs) with different degrees of planarity for photocatalytic hydrogen evolution from water. Depending upon the building linker's planarity, we found that the porous structure, hydrogen-evolution rate, and photocatalytic stability of the resultant CMPs varied.
