Fig. 4 Oxidation reaction of ABTS catalyzed by PPN-24(Fe). a) The
oxidation reaction scheme for ABTS in which ABTS is oxidized to
ABTS●+ by PPN-24(Fe) in the presence of H2O2. b) UV-Vis
absorbance changes over time for PPN-24(Fe) catalyzed ABTS
oxidation, and c) The color changes of solution after (a) 1 min, (b) 3
min, (c) 5 min, (d) 7 min, (e) 10 min, (f) 15 min.
In this context, we have successfully demonstrated a facile one-
spot synthetic strategy to construct 3D, porous, highly stable PPN-
24(Fe), which exhibits great catalytic activity for the oxidation of
ABTS. The integration of the high porosity and enhanced thermal and
chemical stability in PPN-24(Fe) are beneficial for future studies in
the synthesis of biomimetic catalytically active PPN materials.
