The presence of open active metal sites in Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs) exhibit higher catalytic activity. However, rational accomplishment of MOFs in heterogeneous catalysis is limited due to coordination bonds. Recently balanced characteristic feature with combination of both the covalent bonds (structural stability) and open metal sites (single site catalysis) introduced an entirely organic alternative architecture named as Metalated Porous-Organic-Polymers (M-POPs). In this contribution, we demonstrate successful construction of two Fe-POPs (Fe-Tt-POP & Fe-Rb-POP) by ternary copolymerization approach for catalytic oxidative decontamination of different sulfur-based mustard gas simulants. Fe-Tt-POP exhibited superior catalytic performance for oxidation of the thioanisole (TA) studied in terms of conversion (99% after 13 h) in comparison with Fe-Rb-POP (43% after 13h). The remarkable difference in the mechanistic pathways towards catalytic performance for oxidation of TA was investigated by in situ operando Diffuse Reflectance Infrared Fourier Transform Spectroscopy (DRIFTS) analysis, complemented by Density Functional Theory (DFT) computational study.
