Assembly of the active center of organophosphorus hydrolase in metal-organic frameworks via rational combination of functional ligands

Chem Commun (Camb). 2017 Oct 12;53(82):11302-11305. doi: 10.1039/c7cc06270b.

Abstract

Different from popular mimics of bimetallic nuclear centers bridged by a hydroxide, a total coordination sphere of the active center of organophosphorus hydrolase was assembled in metal-organic frameworks by rational design and combination of ligands, which resulted in efficient destruction of nerve agent stimulants without a base as a co-catalyst.
