2D metal chalcogenides with surfaces fully covered with an organic "promoter" for high-performance biomimetic catalysis

Chem Commun (Camb). 2019 Aug 27;55(70):10444-10447. doi: 10.1039/c9cc03443a.

Abstract

A new series of 2D catalytic materials whose inorganic surfaces are fully covered with pre-designed "promoter" groups are reported. One of them showed excellent biomimetic catalytic activity and provided the lowest detection limit to glucose among the reported 2D materials and their composite materials.
