Metal Nanoparticles@Covalent Organic Framework@Enzymes: A Universal Platform for Fabricating a Metal-Enzyme Integrated Nanocatalyst.

Cascade catalysis that combines chemical catalysis and biocatalysis has received extensive attention in recent years, especially the integration of metal nanoparticles (MNPs) with enzymes. However, the compatibility between MNPs and enzymes, and the stability of the integrated nanocatalyst should be improved to promote the application. Therefore, in this study, we proposed a strategy to space-separately co-immobilize MNPs and enzymes to the pores and surface of a highly stable covalent organic framework (COF), respectively. Typically, Pd NPs that were prepared by in situ reduction with triazinyl as the nucleation site were distributed in COF (Tz-Da), and organophosphorus hydrolase (OPH) was immobilized on the surface of Tz-Da by a covalent method to improve its stability. The obtained integrated nanocatalyst Pd@Tz-Da@OPH showed high catalytic efficiency and reusability in the cascade degradation of organophosphate nerve agents. Furthermore, the versatility of the preparation strategy of COF-based integrated nanocatalyst has been preliminarily expanded: (1) Pd NPs and OPH were immobilized in the triazinyl COF (TTB-DHBD) with different pore sizes for cascade degradation of organophosphate nerve agent and the particle size of MNPs can be regulated. (2) Pt NPs and glucose oxidase were immobilized in COF (Tz-Da) to obtain an integrated nanocatalyst for efficient colorimetric detection of phenol.
