Two New Preyssler-Type Polyoxometalate-Based Coordination Polymers and Their Application in Horseradish Peroxidase Immobilization.

Abstract

Enzyme immobilization is of increasing importance for biocatalysis, for which good supports are critical. Herein, two new Preyssler-type polyoxometalate (POM)-based coordination polymers, namely, {[Cu(H2 biim)2 ][{Cu(H2 biim)2 (μ-H2 O)}2 Cu(H2 biim)(H2 O)2 ]H[({Cu(H2 biim)(H2 O)2 }0.5 )2 ((μ-C3 HN2 Cl2 ){Cu(H2 biim)}2 ){Z(H2 O)P5 W30 O110 }]⋅x H2 O}n (1: Z=Na, x=9; 2: Z=Ag, x=10; H2 biim=2,2'-biimidazole) were designed and synthesized. Compounds 1 and 2 exhibit the same skeletons, which contain multiple CuII complex fragments and penta-supported {ZP5 W30 } (Z=Na, Ag) clusters. They were first employed to immobilize horseradish peroxidase (HRP). Results show that compounds 1 and 2 are good supports for HRP immobilization, and exhibit higher enzyme loading, lower loading times, and excellent reusability. The immobilized HRP (HRP/1 or HRP/2) was further applied to detect H2 O2 , and good sensitivity, wide linear range, low detection limit, and fast response were achieved. This work shows that POM-based hybrid materials are a new kind of promising support for enzyme immobilization.
