Abstract
Two novel Ag(I) complexes containing synergistic pyridine and amidoxime ligands (Ag-DPAAO and Ag-PAAO) were first designed as complex monomers. Taking advantage of the molecular imprinting technique and solvothermal method, molecular imprinted porous cross-linked polymers (MIPCPs) were developed as a robust platform for the first time to incorporate Ag-PAAO into a polymer material as a recyclable catalyst. Advantageously, the observed pseudo first-order rate constant (kobs) of MIPCP-Ag-PAAO-20% for ethyl-parathion (EP) hydrolysis is about 1.2 × 104-fold higher than that of self-hydrolysis (30 °C, pH = 9). Furthermore, the reaction mechanism of the MIPCP-containing Ag-PAAO-catalyzed organothiophosphate was analyzed in detail using density functional theory and experimental spectra, indicating that the amidoxime can display dual roles for both the key coordination with the silver ion and nucleophilic attack to weaken the P-OAr bond in the catalytic active site.
