Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) have emerged as a new type of crystalline porous polymers of great interest. However, their preparation requires long reaction times. Microwave-assisted synthesis (MAS) offers an interesting approach to increasing the reaction rate of chemical processes. Thus, microwaves can be a key tool for the fast and scalable synthesis of COFs. Since our previous review on the topic, the preparation of COFs with microwaves has been evolving. Herein, we present a compilation of COFs studies and experiments published in the last three years on the synthesis of COFs using microwave-assisted synthesis as a source of energy. The articles include imine, triazine, and other 2D COFs synthesized using MAS. The 3D COFs have also been compiled. The chemical structure of the monomers and the COFs and their main parameters of synthesis and application are summarized for each article.
