Abstract
Mixed-metal metal-organic framework (MOF)-based water oxidation precatalysts have aroused a great deal of attention due to their remarkable catalytic performance. Yet, despite significant advancement in this field, there is still a need to design new MOF platforms that allow simple and systematic control over the final catalyst's metal composition. Here, we show that a Zr-BTB 2D-MOF could be used to construct a series of Ni-Fe-based oxide hydroxide water oxidation precatalysts with diverse Ni-Fe compositions. In situ Raman spectroscopy characterization revealed that the MOF precatalysts could be electrochemically converted to the active catalysts (NiFeOOH). In turn, it was found that the highest water oxidation activity was obtained with a catalyst containing a 47:53 Ni:Fe molar ratio. Additionally, the obtained catalyst is also active toward electrochemical methanol oxidation, exhibiting high selectivity toward the formation of formic acid. Hence, these results could pave the way for the development of efficient electrocatalytic materials for a variety of oxidative reactions.

Abstract
"Nanozymes" usually refers to inorganic nanomaterials with enzyme-like catalytic activities. The research into nanozymes is one of the hot topics on the horizon of interdisciplinary science involving materials, chemistry, and biology. Although great progress has been made in the design, synthesis, characterization, and application of nanozymes, the study of the underlying microscopic mechanisms and kinetics is still not straightforward. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations compute the potential energy surfaces along the reaction coordinates for chemical reactions, which can give atomistic-level insights into the micro-mechanisms and kinetics for nanozymes. Therefore, DFT calculations have been playing an increasingly important role in exploring the mechanisms and kinetics for nanozymes in the past years. The calculations either predict the microscopic details for the catalytic processes to complement the experiments or further develop theoretical models to depict the physicochemical rules. In this review, the corresponding research progress is summarized. Particularly, the review focuses on the computational studies that closely interplay with the experiments. The relevant experimental results without DFT calculations will be also briefly discussed to offer a historic overview of how the computations promote the understanding of the microscopic mechanisms and kinetics of nanozymes.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) with Lewis acid catalytic sites, such as zirconium-based MOFs (Zr-MOFs), comprise a growing class of phosphatase-like nanozymes that can degrade toxic organophosphate pesticides and nerve agents. Rationally engineering and shaping MOFs from as-synthesized powders into hierarchically porous monoliths is essential for their use in emerging applications, such as filters for air and water purification and personal protection gear. However, several challenges still limit the production of practical MOF composites, including the need for sophisticated reaction conditions, low MOF catalyst loadings in the resulting composites, and poor accessibility to MOF-based active sites. To overcome these limitations, a rapid synthesis method is developed to introduce Zr-MOF nanozyme coating into cellulose nanofibers, resulting in the formation of processable monolithic aerogel composites with high MOF loadings. These composites contain Zr-MOF nanozymes embedded in the structure, and hierarchical macro-micro porosity enables excellent accessibility to catalytic active sites. This multifaceted rational design strategy, including the selection of a MOF with many catalytic sites, fine-tuning the coating morphology, and the fabrication of a hierarchically structured monolithic aerogel, renders synergistic effects toward the efficient continuous hydrolytic detoxification of organophosphorus-based nerve agent simulants and pesticides from contaminated water.

Abstract
Among nerve agents, V-series nerve agents are some of the most toxic, making low-concentration detection critical for the protection of individuals, populations, and strategic resources. Electrochemical sensors are ideally suited for the real-time and in-field sensing of these agents. While V-series nerve agents are inherently nonelectroactive, they can be hydrolyzed to electroactive products compatible with electrochemical sensing. Zr(IV) MOFs are next-generation nanoporous materials that have been shown to rapidly catalyze the hydrolysis of nerve agents. This work makes use of these nanomaterials to develop, for the first time, an MOF-enabled electrochemical sensor for V-series nerve agents. Our work demonstrates that the VX thiol hydrolysis product can be electrochemically detected at low concentrations using commercially available gold electrodes. We demonstrate that low-concentration thiol oxidation is an irreversible reaction that is dependent on both mass transport and adsorption. Demeton-S-methylsulfon, a VX simulant, is used to demonstrate the full range of sensor operation that includes hydrolysis and electrochemical detection. We demonstrate that MOF-808 rapidly, selectively, and completely hydrolyzes demeton-S-methylsulfon to less-hazardous dimethyl phosphate and 2-ethylsulfonylethanethiol. Low-concentration measurements of 2-ethylsulfonylethanethiol are performed by using electrochemical techniques. This sensor has a limit of detection of 30 nM or 7.87 μg/L for 2-ethylsulfonylethanethiol, which is near the nerve agent exposure limit for water samples established by the United States military. Our work demonstrates the feasibility of rapid, robust electrochemical sensing of V-series nerve agents at low concentrations for in-field applications.

Abstract
We present the fabrication of a novel Starfruit-shaped metal-organic framework (SMOF) composed of zirconium and Tetra(4-carboxyphenyl)porphine linkers. The SMOF exhibits a unique morphology with edge-sharing two-dimensional (2D) nanosheet petals. Our investigation unravels a captivating transformation process, wherein three-dimensional (3D) shuttle-shaped MOFs form initially and subsequently evolve into 2D nanosheet-based SMOF structures. The distinct morphology of SMOF showcases superior catalytic activity in detoxifying G-type nerve agent and blister agent simulants, surpassing that of its 3D counterparts. This discovery of the 3D-to-2D transition growth pathway unlocks exciting opportunities for exploring novel strategies in advanced MOF nanostructure development, not only for catalysis but also for various other applications.

Abstract
Natural metalloenzymes with astonishing reaction activity and specificity underpin essential life transformations. Nevertheless, enzymes only operate under mild conditions to keep sophisticated structures active, limiting their potential applications. Artificial metalloenzymes that recapitulate the catalytic activity of enzymes can not only circumvent the enzymatic fragility but also bring versatile functions into practice. Among them, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) featuring diverse and site-isolated metal sites and supramolecular structures have emerged as promising candidates for metalloenzymes to move toward unparalleled properties and behaviour of enzymes. In this review, we systematically summarize the significant advances in MOF-based metalloenzyme mimics with a special emphasis on active pocket engineering at the atomic level, including primary catalytic sites and secondary coordination spheres. Then, the deep understanding of catalytic mechanisms and their advanced applications are discussed. Finally, a perspective on this emerging frontier research is provided to advance bioinspired catalysis.

Abstract
Metal-oxo clusters hold great potential in several fields such as catalysis, materials science, energy storage, medicine, and biotechnology. These nanoclusters of transition metals with oxygen-based ligands have also shown promising reactivity towards several classes of biomolecules, including proteins, nucleic acids, nucleotides, sugars, and lipids. This reactivity can be leveraged to address some of the most pressing challenges we face today, from fighting various diseases, such as cancer and viral infections, to the development of sustainable and environmentally friendly energy sources. For instance, metal-oxo clusters and related materials have been shown to be effective catalysts for biomass conversion into renewable fuels and platform chemicals. Furthermore, their reactivity towards biomolecules has also attracted interest in the development of inorganic drugs and bioanalytical tools. Additionally, the structural versatility of metal-oxo clusters allows for the efficiency and selectivity of the biomolecular reactions they promote to be readily tuned, thereby providing a pathway towards reaction optimization. The properties of the catalyst can also be improved through incorporation into solid supports or by linking metal-oxo clusters together to form Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs), which have been demonstrated to be powerful heterogeneous catalysts. Therefore, this review aims to provide a comprehensive and critical analysis of the state of the art on biomolecular transformations promoted by metal-oxo clusters and their applications, with a particular focus on structure-activity relationships.

Abstract
Hydrolytic destruction of toxic organophosphorus nerve agents by metal-organic framework (MOF) catalysts is commonly reliant on bulk water and volatile liquid base, preventing real-world implementation. Poor accessibility to MOF-based active sites in heterogeneous catalysis is also a crucial factor since reactants diffusion is limited by inherently small micropores. To overcome these practical limitations, a ligand-selective pyrolysis strategy was used to construct unsaturated Zr defects and additional mesopores in UiO-66(Zr). Owing to synergistic effect of Zr defects and hierarchical pores, hydrolysis rate constant (k) of nerve agent simulant DMNP (dimethyl 4-nitrophenyl phosphate) on optimal DHP-UiO-30% (defective hierarchical porous UiO-66) is 3.2 times higher than counterpart UiO-30% in N-ethylmorpholine buffer. Encapsulating imidazole (Im) into DHP-UiO-30% affords Im@DHP-UiO, mimicking phosphotriesterase. Im-72@DHP-UiO exhibits rapid DMNP detoxification with 99% conversion in 12 min and initial half-life (t1/2) of 1.8 min in nonbuffered water. As the first example of 'three-in-one' detoxifier, Im@DHP-UiO is further integrated onto nonwoven fabric to construct Im@DHP/Fiber, achieving solid-phase detoxification at ambient humidity with t1/2 of 19.6 min and final conversion of 91%. This is comparable to many powdered catalysts in aqueous solution buffered by volatile bases. This unified strategy is critical and viable to efficiently hydrolyze nerve agents in practical settings.

Abstract
The development of materials that enable the efficient removal of toxic compounds is important for the improvement of current protective materials or decontamination technologies. Current materials rely either on agent removal by adsorption or by effecting (catalytic) degradation. Ideally, both of these mechanisms are combined in a single material in order to target a more broad spectrum of toxic agents and to improve the performance of the materials. Recent attempts to combine materials with either adsorptive or catalytic properties into a composite material are promising, although the overall performance often suffers from competition for the agent between the adsorptive and catalytic domains in the composites. In this work, we propose that metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) could feature both adsorptive properties as well as catalytic properties in a single structural domain, thereby avoiding a reduction in the overall performance originating from competitive agent interactions. We showcase this concept using the MOF Ni3(BTP)2, which exhibits strong affinity and high capacity for the storage of a nerve agent simulant and a pesticide. Moreover, it is demonstrated that the adsorbed agents are efficiently degraded and that the nontoxic degradation products are rapidly expelled from the MOF pores. Its ability to catalyze the hydrolytic degradation of both organophosphate and organophosphorothioate compounds highlights another unique feature of this material. The presented concept illustrates the feasibility for developing materials that target a broader spectrum of agents via adsorption, catalysis, or both and by their broader reactivity toward different types of agents.

COF-supported zirconium oxyhydroxide as a versatile heterogeneous catalyst for Knoevenagel condensation and nerve agent hydrolysis. iScience 2023; 26:108088. [PMID: 37942004 PMCID: PMC10628716 DOI: 10.1016/j.isci.2023.108088] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/31/2023] [Revised: 06/25/2023] [Accepted: 09/26/2023] [Indexed: 11/10/2023] Open
Abstract
A composite of catalytic Lewis acidic zirconium oxyhydroxides (8 wt %) and a covalent organic framework (COF) was synthesized. X-ray diffraction and infrared (IR) spectroscopy reveal that COF's structure is preserved after loading with zirconium oxyhydroxides. Electron microscopy confirms a homogeneous distribution of nano- to sub-micron-sized zirconium clusters in the COF. 3D X-ray tomography captures the micron-sized channels connecting the well-dispersed zirconium clusters on the COF. The crystalline ZrOx(OH)y@COF's nanostructure was model-optimized via simulated annealing methods. Using 0.8 mol % of the catalyst yielded a turnover number of 100-120 and a turnover frequency of 160-360 h-1 for Knoevenagel condensation in aqueous medium. Additionally, 2.2 mol % of catalyst catalyzes the hydrolysis of dimethyl nitrophenyl phosphate, a simulant of nerve agent Soman, with a conversion rate of 37% in 180 min. The hydrolytic detoxification of the live agent Soman is also achieved. Our study unveils COF-stabilized ZrOx(OH)y as a new class of zirconium-based Lewis + Bronsted-acid catalysts.

Abstract
Nanomaterials with intrinsic enzyme activity, referred to as nanozymes, have attracted substantial attention in recent years. Among them, phosphatase-mimicking nanozymes have become an increasingly important focus for future research, considering that phosphatase is not only one of key enzymes for phosphorous metabolism, which is essential for many biological processes (e.g., cellular regulation and signaling), but also one of extensively used biocatalytic labels in the enzyme-linked assays as well as a powerful tool enzyme in molecular biology laboratories. Nevertheless, compared with extensive oxidoreductase-mimicking nanozymes, there are a very limited number of nanozymes with phosphatase-like activity have been explored at present. The increasing demand of complex and individualized phosphatase-involved catalytic behaviors is pushing the development of more advanced phosphatase-mimicking nanozymes. Thus, we present an overview on recently reported phosphatase-like nanozymes, providing guidelines and new insights for designing more advanced phosphatase-mimicking nanozyme with superior properties.

Abstract
Nanozymes are inorganic, organic and metal-organic framework nanoparticles that reveal catalytic functions by emulating native enzyme activities. Recently, these nanozymes have attracted growing scientific interest, finding diverse analytical and medical applications. However, the catalytic activities and functions of nanozymes are limited, due to the lack of substrate binding sites that concentrate on the substrate at the catalytic site (molarity effect), introduce substrate specificity and allow functional complexity of the catalysts (cascaded, switchable and cooperative catalysis). The modification of nanozymes with functional nucleic acids provides means to overcome these limitations and engineer nucleic acid/nanozyme hybrids for diverse applications. This is exemplified with the synthesis of aptananozymes, which are supramolecular aptamer-modified nanozymes. Aptananozymes exhibit combined specific binding and catalytic properties that drive diverse chemical transformations, revealing enhanced catalytic activities, as compared to the separated nanozyme/aptamer constituents. Relationships of structure-catalytic functions in the aptananozyme constructs are demonstrated. In addition, modification of nanozymes exhibiting multimodal catalytic functions with aptamers allows the engineering of nanozyme-based bioreactors for cascaded catalysis. Also, the functionalization of reactive oxygen species (ROS)-generating nanozymes with cancer cell-recognizing aptamers yields aptananozymes for targeted chemodynamic treatment of cancer cells and cancer tumors elicited in mice. Finally, nucleic acid-modified enzyme (glucose oxidase)-loaded metal-organic framework nanoparticles yield switchable biocatalytic nanozymes that drive the ON/OFF biocatalyzed oxidation of Amplex Red, dopamine or the generation of chemiluminescence. Herein, future challenges of the topic are addressed.

Abstract
This review comprehensively covers synthetic catalysts for the hydrolysis of biorelevant phosphates and pyrophosphates, which bridge between nanoarchitectonics and biology to construct their interdisciplinary hybrids. In the early 1980s, remarkable catalytic activity of Ce4+ ion for phosphate hydrolysis was found. More recently, this finding has been extended to Ce-based solid catalysts (CeO2 and Ce-based metal-organic frameworks (MOFs)), which are directly compatible with nanoarchitectonics. Monoesters and triesters of phosphates, as well as pyrophosphates, were effectively cleaved by these catalysts. With the use of either CeO2 nanoparticles or elegantly designed Ce-based MOF, highly stable phosphodiester linkages were also hydrolyzed. On the surfaces of all these solid catalysts, Ce4+ and Ce3+ coexist and cooperate for the catalysis. The Ce4+ activates phosphate substrates as a strong acid, whereas the Ce3+ provides metal-bound hydroxide as an eminent nucleophile. Applications of these Ce-based catalysts to practical purposes are also discussed.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are highly versatile materials that have shown great promise in chemical warfare agent (CWA) adsorption and decontamination. Sulfur mustard has been one of the most prominently used CWAs over the last century; therefore, the development of effective detoxification strategies is of utmost importance. However, typical routes of detoxification are slow and/or result in the production of harmful byproducts. NU-1000 has previously shown promise as a "soft" oxidizer that can readily detoxify sulfur mustard and its simulant 2-chloroethyl ethyl sulfide (2-CEES) through the generation of singlet oxygen in the presence of either UV (396 nm) or blue (465 nm) light. Several variants of NU-1000 were synthesized (MOF-R, R = -Cl, -NO2, -CH3) with functional groups positioned either ortho or meta to the carboxylic acid on the linker. NU-1000-o-(Cl)4 and NU-1000-m-(Cl)4 showed significant enhancement of photooxidation of 2-CEES due to spin-orbit coupling, enhancing the intersystem crossing into the MOF triplet (T1) state. Furthermore, substitution of MOF linkers led to pyrene-phenyl rotation. Linkers with substituents in the ortho-position were shown to have smaller pyrene-phenyl torsion angles, leading to enhanced conjugation between the rings and a subsequent red shift in the absorption spectra. This red shift leads to enhanced reactivity of NU-1000-o-(Cl)4 under blue light conditions and gives perspective on making materials with enhanced reactivity utilizing visible light.

Abstract
The development of protective fabrics that are capable of capturing and detoxifying a wide range of lethal chemical warfare agents (CWAs) in an efficient way is of great importance for individual protection gears/clothing. In this work, unique metal-organic framework (MOF)-on-MOF nanofabrics were fabricated through facile self-assembly of UiO-66-NH2 and MIL-101(Cr) crystals on electrospun polyacrylonitrile (PAN) nanofabrics and exhibited intriguing synergistic effects between the MOF composites on the detoxification of both nerve agent and blistering agent simulants. MIL-101(Cr), although not catalytic, facilitates the enrichment of CWA simulants from solution or air, thereby delivering a high concentration of reactants to catalytic UiO-66-NH2 coated on its surface and providing an enlarged contact area for CWA simulants with the Zr6 nodes and aminocarboxylate linkers compared to solid substrates. Consequently, the as-prepared MOF-on-MOF nanofabrics showed a fast hydrolysis rate (t1/2 = 2.8 min) for dimethyl 4-nitrophenylphosphate (DMNP) in alkaline solutions and a high removal rate (90% within 4 h) of 2-(ethylthio)-chloroethane (CEES) under environmental conditions, considerably surpassing their single-MOF counterparts and the mixture of two MOF nanofabrics. This work demonstrates synergistic detoxification of CWA simulants using MOF-on-MOF composites for the first time and has the potential to be extended to other MOF/MOF pairs, which provides new ideas for the development of highly efficient toxic gas-protective materials.

Abstract
Enzymatic catalysis has fueled considerable interest from chemists due to its high efficiency and selectivity. However, the structural complexity and vulnerability hamper the application potentials of enzymes. Driven by the practical demand for chemical conversion, there is a long-sought quest for bioinspired catalysts reproducing and even surpassing the functions of natural enzymes. As nanoporous materials with high surface areas and crystallinity, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) represent an exquisite case of how natural enzymes and their active sites are integrated into porous solids, affording bioinspired heterogeneous catalysts with superior stability and customizable structures. In this review, we comprehensively summarize the advances of bioinspired MOFs for catalysis, discuss the design principle of various MOF-based catalysts, such as MOF-enzyme composites and MOFs embedded with active sites, and explore the utility of these catalysts in different reactions. The advantages of MOFs as enzyme mimetics are also highlighted, including confinement, templating effects, and functionality, in comparison with homogeneous supramolecular catalysts. A perspective is provided to discuss potential solutions addressing current challenges in MOF catalysis.

Abstract
Chemical warfare agents (CWAs) significantly threaten human peace and global security. Most personal protective equipment (PPE) deployed to prevent exposure to CWAs is generally devoid of self-detoxifying activity. Here we report the spatial rearrangement of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) into superelastic lamellar-structured aerogels based on a ceramic network-assisted interfacial engineering protocol. The optimized aerogels exhibit efficient adsorption and decomposition performance against CWAs either in liquid or aerosol forms (half-life of 5.29 min, dynamic breakthrough extent of 400 L g-1) due to the preserved MOF structure, van-der-Waals barrier channels, minimized diffusion resistance (~41% reduction), and stability over a thousand compressions. The successful construction of the attractive materials offers fascinating perspectives on the development of field-deployable, real-time detoxifying, and structurally adaptable PPE that could be served as outdoor emergency life-saving devices against CWAs threats. This work also provides a guiding toolbox for incorporating other critical adsorbents into the accessible 3D matrix with enhanced gas transport properties.

Abstract
The development of high-performance catalyst materials with high catalytic activity for the hydrolysis of organophosphorus toxicants without additional pH buffer conditions has become an urgent need for practical application. Here, a multifunctional molecularly imprinted polymer double network hydrogel (MIP-DN) material has been prepared by integrating the first polymer network containing the functional group of bi-amidoxime as the catalytic active center and the cationic polymer polyethyleneimine (PEI) with pH buffer function as the main component of the second network. Advantageously, the resultant MIP-DN hydrogel showed excellent catalytic performance without additional pH buffer conditions, exhibiting a half-life of 25 min for the hydrolysis of paraoxon in pure water. Together with multi-functions of high catalytic activity, self-buffering function and excellent processability, the MIP-DN hydrogel prepared in this work provides a new strategy for the preparation of catalytic materials with practical application value toward toxic organophosphates.

Abstract
The development of very efficient bifunctional catalysts for the simultaneous detoxification of two kinds of the deadliest chemical warfare agents (CWAs), nerve agent and blister agent, is highly desirable. In this study, two porphyrin-based ligands [tetrakis(4-carboxyphenyl) porphyrin (TCPP) and protoporphyrin IX (PPIX)] are introduced into 2D Zr-1,3,5-tris(4-carboxyphenyl)benzene (BTB) metal-organic layers (MOLs), composed of six-connected Zr6 nodes and the tritopic carboxylate ligand BTB, by a solvent-assisted ligand incorporation method. The loads of TCPP and PPIX are 6.4 and 10.9 wt %, respectively. The detoxification of simulants of the nerve agent and the blister agent was conducted to investigate the catalytic activity of porphyrin-moiety-functionalized MOLs. The reaction half-life of optimal TCPP-functionalized MOL catalyzing the hydrolysis of a nerve agent simulant is only 2.8 min, meanwhile, the half-life of the selective catalytic oxidation of a blister agent simulant is only 1.2 min under LED illumination. More importantly, such a degradation half-life is only about 4 min under natural sunlight (∼60 mW/cm2). To our knowledge, TCPP-functionalized MOL is by far the most efficient catalyst for blister agent simulant degradation under solar light. Therefore, 2D ultrathin MOLs on demand appear to be a promising and efficient material platform for the development of bifunctional catalysts for CWA protection.

Abstract
Zirconium-based metal-organic frameworks (Zr-MOFs) have been demonstrated as potent catalysts for the hydrolytic detoxification of organophosphorus nerve agents and their simulants. However, the practical implementation of these Zr-MOFs is limited by the poor processability of their powdered form and the necessity of water media buffered by a volatile liquid base in the catalytic reaction. Herein, we demonstrate the efficient solid-state hydrolysis of a nerve agent simulant (dimethyl-4-nitrophenyl phosphate, DMNP) catalyzed by Zr-MOF-based mixed matrix membranes. The mixed matrix membranes were fabricated by incorporating MOF-808 into the blending matrix of poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF), poly(vinylpyrrolidone) (PVP), and imidazole (Im), in which MOF-808 provides highly active catalytic sites, the hydrophilic PVP helps to retain water for promoting the hydrolytic reaction, and Im serves as a base for catalytic site regeneration. Impressively, the mixed matrix membranes displayed excellent catalytic performance for the solid-state hydrolysis of DMNP under high humidity, representing a significant step toward the practical application of Zr-MOFs in chemical protective layers against nerve agents.

Abstract
The development of functional materials that can detoxify multiple chemical warfare agents (CWAs) at the same time is of great significance to cope with the uncertainty of CWA use in real-world situations. Although many catalysts capable of detoxifying CWAs have been reported, there is still a lack of effective means to integrate these catalytic-active materials on practical fibers/fabrics to achieve effective protection against coexistence of a variety of CWAs. In this work, by a combination of electrospinning and in situ solvothermal reaction, PAN@Zr(OH)4@MOF-808 nanofiber membranes were prepared for detoxification of both nerve agent and blistering agent simulants dimethyl 4-nitrophenyl phosphate (DMNP) and 2-chloroethyl ethyl sulfide (CEES). Under the catalytic effect of the MOF-808 component, DMNP hydrolysis with a half-life as short as 1.19 min was achieved. Meanwhile, an 89.3% CEES removal rate was obtained within 12 h by adsorption and catalysis of MOF-808 and Zr(OH)4 components at ambient conditions, respectively. PAN@Zr(OH)4@MOF-808 nanofiber membranes also showed a superior blocking effect on CEES compared to bare PAN and PAN@Zr(OH)4 nanofiber membranes. Simultaneous protection against DMNP and CEES showed effective inhibition of both simulants for at least 2 h. The preparation method also imparted intrinsically good interfacial adhesion between the components, contributing to the excellent recycling stability of PAN@Zr(OH)4@MOF-808 nanofiber membranes. Therefore, the prepared composite nanofabrics have great application potential, which provides a new idea for the construction of broad-spectrum protective detoxification materials.

Abstract
Designing nanoporous catalysts to destroy chemical warfare agents (CWAs) and environmental contaminants requires consideration of both intrinsic catalytic activity and the mass transfer of molecules in and out of the pores. Polar adsorbates such as CWAs experience a heterogeneous environment in many metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) due to the arrangement of the metal nodes and organic linkers of the MOF. However, quantitative relationships between the pore architecture and the resulting diffusion properties of polar molecules have not been established. We used molecular dynamics simulations to calculate the diffusion coefficients of the CWA simulant dimethyl methyl phosphonate (DMMP) in a diverse set of 776 MOFs with Zr6 nodes. We developed a 4-parameter machine learning model to predict DMMP diffusivities in Zr6 MOFs and found the model to be transferable to the CWA sarin. We then developed a simplified heuristic based on the machine learning model that the node-node distance and accessible surface area should be maximized to find MOFs with rapid CWA diffusion.

Abstract
Polyadenine-stabilized Au nanoparticles (pA-AuNPs) reveal dual nanozyme catalytic activities toward the H2O2-mediated oxidation of dopamine to aminochrome and toward the aerobic oxidation of glucose to gluconic acid and H2O2. The conjugation of a dopamine-binding aptamer (DBA) to the pA-AuNPs yields aptananozyme structures catalyzing simultaneously the H2O2-mediated oxidation of dopamine to aminochrome through the aerobic oxidation of glucose. A set of aptananozymes consisting of DBA conjugated through the 5'- or 3'-end directly or spacer bridges to pA-AuNPs were synthesized. The set of aptananozymes revealed enhanced catalytic activities toward the H2O2-catalyzed oxidation of dopamine to dopachrome, as compared to the separated pA-AuNPs and DBA constituents, and structure-function relationships within the series of aptananozymes were demonstrated. The enhanced catalytic function of the aptananozymes was attributed to the concentration of the dopamine at the catalytic interfaces by means of aptamer-dopamine complexes. The dual catalytic activities of aptananozymes were further applied to design bioreactors catalyzing the effective aerobic oxidation of dopamine in the presence of glucose. Mechanistic studies demonstrated that the aptananozymes generate reactive oxygen species. Accordingly, the AS1411 aptamer, recognizing the nucleolin receptor associated with cancer cells, was conjugated to the pA-AuNPs, yielding a nanozyme for the chemodynamic treatment of cancer cells. The AS1411 aptamer targets the aptananozyme to the cancer cells and facilitates the selective permeation of the nanozyme into the cells. Selective cytotoxicity toward MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells (ca. 70% cell death) as compared to MCF-10A epithelial cells (ca. 2% cell death) is demonstrated.

Abstract
Chemical warfare agents, such as nerve agents (GD and VX) and blister agents (HD), have strong toxicities to mankind. In recent years, zirconium-based metal-organic frameworks have been found to be attractive materials for chemical warfare agent degradation. Among them, metal-organic framework-808 (MOF-808) and porous coordination network-222 (PCN-222) were the best. However, few papers pay attention to their practical application. In this work, we prepared MOF-808 and PCN-222 using water phase and organic solvothermal methods, respectively. Their performance for the catalytic degradation of chemical warfare agents under practical decontamination conditions was studied. The results showed that MOF-808 displayed a high potency for catalytic hydrolysis of VX (10,000 mg L−1) in unbuffered solution. PCN-222 exhibited weaker reactivity with a half-life ( t1/2) of 28.8 min. Their different performances might stem from the different connectivity of the Zr6 nodes and framework structures. The results illustrated that the hydrolysis of high-concentration GD required a strong alkaline buffer to neutralize the hydrolysis product of hydrofluoric acid (HF) to avoid catalyst poisoning. When H2O2 was used as the oxidant instead of O2, both zirconium-based metal-organic frameworks performed with effective catalytic potency for HD degradation without any special lighting and so was suitable for practical application, whereas the products obtained from HD, such as HDO2 and V-HDO2, still possessed vesicant toxicity. Overall, MOF-808 prepared via a water-phase synthesis performed with effective catalysis for the degradation of high-concentration VX, GD, and HD with t1/2 of < 0.5, 3.1 and 2.2 min, respectively, exhibiting its potential for practical applications.

Abstract
The one-pot combination of biocatalytic and chemocatalytic reactions represents an economically and ecologically attractive concept in the emerging cascade processes for manufacturing. The mutual incompatibility of biocatalysis and chemocatalysis, however, usually causes the deactivation of catalysts, the mismatching of reaction dynamic, and further challenges their integration into concurrent chemo-biocascades. Herein, we have developed a convenient strategy to construct versatile functional metal–organic framework micro-nanoreactors (MOF–MNRs), which can realize not only the encapsulation and protection of biocatalysts but also the controllable transmission of substances and the mutual communication of the incompatible chemo-biosystems. Importantly, the MOFs serving as the shell of MNRs have the capability of enriching the chemocatalysts on the surface and improving the activity of the chemocatalysts to sufficiently match the optimum aqueous reaction system of biocatalysts, which greatly increase the efficiency in the combined concurrent chemo-biocatalysis. Such strategy of constructing MOF–MNRs provides a unique platform for connecting the “two worlds” of chemocatalysis and biocatalysis.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are promising platforms for heterogeneous tethering of molecular CO2 reduction electrocatalysts. Yet, to further understand electrocatalytic MOF systems, one also needs to consider their capability to fine-tune the immediate chemical environment of the active site, and thus affect its overall catalytic operation. Here, we show that electrostatic secondary-sphere functionalities enable substantial improvement of CO2 -to-CO conversion activity and selectivity. In situ Raman analysis reveal that immobilization of pendent positively-charged groups adjacent to MOF-residing Fe-porphyrin catalysts, stabilize weakly-bound CO intermediates, allowing their rapid release as catalytic products. Also, by varying the electrolyte's ionic strength, systematic regulation of electrostatic field magnitude was achieved, resulting in essentially 100 % CO selectivity. Thus, this concept provides a sensitive molecular-handle that adjust heterogeneous electrocatalysis on demand.

Abstract
The synthesis and characterization of Au3+ -modified UiO-67 metal-organic framework nanoparticles, Au3+ -NMOFs, are described. The Au3+ -NMOFs reveal dual oxidase-like and peroxidase-like activities and act as an active catalyst for the catalyzed generation of O2•- under aerobic conditions or •OH in the presence of H2 O2 . The two reactive oxygen species (ROS) agents O2•- and •OH are cooperatively formed by Au3+ -NMOFs under aerobic conditions, and in the presence of H2 O2. The Au3+ -NMOFs are applied as an effective catalyst for the generation ROS agents for antibacterial and wound healing applications. Effective antibacterial cell death and inhibition of cell proliferation of Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) and Escherichia coli (E. coli) bacterial colonies are demonstrated in the presence of the Au3+ -NMOFs. In addition, in vivo experiments demonstrate effective wound healing of mice wounds infected by S. aureus, treated by the Au3+ -NMOFs.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have shown great success in aqueous-phase hydrolysis of nerve agents, with some even showing promise in the gas phase. However, both aqueous-phase reactivity and gas-phase reactivity are hindered because of the binding of the hydrolyzed products to the MOF nodes in a stable, bridging configuration, which limits turnover. Single transition-metal atoms in MOFs have been a growing field of interest for catalytic applications, and single atoms have been proposed to prevent the unwanted bridged conformation and increase catalytic turnover. To date, there has been little experimental evidence to support the hypothesis. Herein, we report two copper single atom-modified UiO-66 MOFs for nerve-agent simulant degradation. Despite the capping of highly active Zr4+ nodes with fewer Lewis acidic Cun+ atoms, the reactivity of both CuMOFs approaches that of native UiO-66 under aqueous conditions. Computational studies reveal that the Cu coordination environment impairs product inhibition with respect to the native MOF.

Abstract
Zirconium-based metal-organic frameworks (Zr-MOFs) have been considered as prospective materials for the degradation of nerve chemical warfare agents (CWAs) but show poor catalytic performance toward blister agents. Moreover, the powder issues and the poor adsorption capability also remain as the major challenges for the application of Zr-MOFs in practical CWA detoxification. Herein, a series of defected granular UiO-66-NH2 metal-organic gels are synthesized via adjusting the amount of added concentrated hydrochloric acid for the decontamination of 2-chloroethyl ethyl sulfide (2-CEES), a sulfur mustard simulant. The half-life of 2-CEES decontaminated by defected granular UiO-66-NH2 metal-organic gels can be shortened to 7.6 min, which is the highest reported value for MOFs under ambient conditions. The mechanism of decontamination is that the amino group on the linkers in UiO-66-NH2 MOGs undergoes a substitution reaction with 2-CEES to yield 2-(2-(ethylthio)ethylamino)terephthalic acid, which is less toxic and fixed in the frameworks. The recycling test corroborates that the granular UiO-66-NH2 xerogels possess good stability and reusability. Static adsorption and desorption tests show that UiO-66-NH2 xerogels possess a high 2-CEES vapor adsorption capacity of 802 mg/g after exposure for 1 d and only 28 wt % desorption capacity after air exposure for 7 d. The dual function of ultrafast degradation and high adsorption capability provide a firm foundation for using UiO-66-NH2 xerogels as a future protection media.

Abstract
The fabrication of MOF polymer composite materials enables the practical applications of MOF-based technology, in particular for protective suits and masks. However, traditional production methods typically require organic solvent for processing which leads to environmental pollution, low-loading efficiency, poor accessibility, and loss of functionality due to poor solvent resistance properties. For the first time, we have developed a microbial synthesis strategy to prepare a MOF/bacterial cellulose nanofiber composite sponge. The prepared sponge exhibited a hierarchically porous structure, high MOF loading (up to ≈90 %), good solvent resistance, and high catalytic activity for the liquid- and solid-state hydrolysis of nerve agent simulants. Moreover, the MOF/ bacterial cellulose composite sponge reported here showed a nearly 8-fold enhancement in the protection against an ultra-toxic nerve agent (GD) in permeability studies as compared to a commercialized adsorptive carbon cloth. The results shown here present an essential step toward the practical application of MOF-based protective gear against nerve agents.

Abstract
Immunoassay as a rapid and convenient method for detecting a variety of targets has attracted tremendous interest with its high specificity and sensitivity. Among the commonly used immunoassays, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay has been widely used as a gold standard method in various fields that consists of two main components including a recognition element and an enzyme label. With the rapid advances in nanotechnology, nanobodies and nanozymes enable immunoassays with enhanced specificity and sensitivity compared with conventional antibodies and natural enzymes. This review is focused on the applications of nanobodies and nanozymes in immunoassays. Nanobodies advantage lies in their small size, high specificity, mass expression, and high stability. Nanozymes with peroxidase, phosphatase, and oxidase activities and their applications in immunoassays are highlighted and discussed in detail. In addition, the challenges and outlooks in terms of the use of nanobodies and the development of novel nanozymes in practical applications are discussed.

Abstract
Biocatalytic cascades are challenging to operate in homogeneous solution, where diffusional mass transport hinders efficient communication between the reactive components. There is great interest in developing devices to perform such transformations in confined environments, which increase the efficiency of the cascaded process by generating high local concentrations of the reactive species. Herein, a bioreactor-nanozyme assembly is introduced for the cascaded aerobic oxidation of N-hydroxy-l-arginine (NOHA) to citrulline in the presence of glucose. The reaction mimics a key step in the nitric oxide synthase oxidation of l-arginine in nature. The system consists of glucose oxidase (GOx)-loaded hemin/G-quadruplex (hemin/G4)-modified ZIF-90 metal-organic framework nanoparticles. The aerobic oxidation of glucose by GOx yields H2 O2 that fuels the hemin/G4-catalyzed oxidation of NOHA into citrulline. The process driven by the bioreactor-nanozyme system is ≈sixfold enhanced compared to the homogeneous mixture of the biocatalysts, due to its operation in the confined environment of the nanoparticles. Extension to a three-step cascade is then demonstrated using a bioreactor composed of β-galactosidase/GOx-loaded hemin/G4-modified ZIF-90 nanoparticles activating the cascaded oxidation of NOHA to citrulline, in the presence of lactose. Moreover, the bioreactor-nanozyme hybrid is applied as a functional optical sensor of glucose, using fluorescence or chemiluminescence as readout signals.

Abstract
In our study, Zr-based UiO-66 (Zr) was synthesized using terephthalic acid obtained from waste plastic. Thereafter, UiO-66/g-C3N4 composites were prepared by the solvothermal method, and their photocatalytic activity in the photodegradation of the chemical warfare agent simulant, dimethyl 4-nitrophenyl phosphate (DMNP), was evaluated. The as-synthesized UiO-66/g-C3N4 exhibited a high surface area (1440 m2 g−1) and a high capillary volume (1.49 cm3 g−1). The UiO-66/g-C3N4 samples absorbed a visible light band with bandgap energies of 2.13–2.88 eV. The as-synthesized UiO-66/g-C3N4 composites exhibited highly efficient degradation of DMNP with a short half-life (t1/2 of 2.17 min) at pH 7 under visible light irradiation. The trapping experiments confirmed that the h+ and ˙O2− radicals played an important role in the photocatalytic degradation of DMNP. The UiO-66/g-C3N4 catalyst simultaneously performed two processes: the hydrolysis and photocatalytic oxidation of DMNP in water. During irradiation, a p–n heterojunction between UiO-66 and g-C3N4 restricted the recombination of photogenerated electrons and holes, resulting in the enhancement in the degradation rate of DMNP. UiO-66/g-C3N4 with a high surface area (1440 m2 g−1) and a high capillary volume (1.49 cm3 g−1) exhibited highly efficient degradation of dimethyl 4-nitrophenyl phosphate with t1/2 = 2.17 min.![]()

Abstract
UiO-66 is regarded as an epitome of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) because of its stability. Defect engineering has been used as a toolbox to alter the performance of MOFs. UiO-66 is among the most widely explored MOFs because of its capability to bear a high number of defects without undergoing structural collapse. Several representative works in the field of MOF-based defect engineering are available based on UiO-66. In this review, more emphasis is given toward the construction of catalytic sites by engineering defects in UiO-66 as a representative including all the detailed synthesis procedures for inducing defects, and the characterization techniques used to analyze these defects in UiO-66 are discussed. Furthermore, a comprehensive review for the defects themselves and the support using defects in catalysis is provided to accentuate the importance of defect engineering.

Abstract
Visual monitoring of the degradation of nerve agent simulants based on the switchable fluorescence of UiO-66-NH2 was developed. In the hydrolysis, the decomposition products perturbed the linker-to-cluster charge transfer and stimulated the fluorescence recovery. Moreover, a "soft" solid-state platform utilizing agarose hydrogels was proposed to visualize the degradation of gaseous simulants without bulk water.

Abstract
Rapid and robust sensing of nerve agent (NA) threats is necessary for real-time field detection to facilitate timely countermeasures. Unlike conventional phosphotriesterases employed for biocatalytic NA detection, this work describes the use of a new, green, thermally stable, and biocompatible zirconium metal-organic framework (Zr-MOF) catalyst, MIP-202(Zr). The biomimetic Zr-MOF-based catalytic NA recognition layer was coupled with a solid-contact fluoride ion-selective electrode (F-ISE) transducer, for potentiometric detection of diisopropylfluorophosphate (DFP), a F-containing G-type NA simulant. Catalytic DFP degradation by MIP-202(Zr) was evaluated and compared to the established UiO-66-NH2 catalyst. The efficient catalytic DFP degradation with MIP-202(Zr) at near-neutral pH was validated by 31P NMR and FT-IR spectroscopy and potentiometric F-ISE and pH-ISE measurements. Activation of MIP-202(Zr) using Soxhlet extraction improved the DFP conversion rate and afforded a 2.64-fold improvement in total percent conversion over UiO-66-NH2. The exceptional thermal and storage stability of the MIP-202/F-ISE sensor paves the way toward remote/wearable field detection of G-type NAs in real-world environments. Overall, the green, sustainable, highly scalable, and biocompatible nature of MIP-202(Zr) suggests the unexploited scope of such MOF catalysts for on-body sensing applications toward rapid on-site detection and detoxification of NA threats.

Abstract
Defect engineering in metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) has recently become an area of significant research due to the possibility of enhancing material properties such as internal surface area and catalytic activity while maintaining stable 3D structures. Through a modulator screening study, the model Zr4+ MOF, UiO-66, has been synthesized with control of particle sizes (100-1900 nm) and defect levels (2-24%). By relating these properties, two series were identified where one property remained constant, allowing for independent analysis of the defect level or particle size, which frequently change coincident with the modulator choice. The series were used to compare UiO-66 reactivity for the hydrolysis of a chemical warfare agent simulant, dimethyl 4-nitrophenylphosphate (DMNP). The rate of DMNP hydrolysis displayed high dependence on the external surface area, supporting a reaction dominated by surface interactions. Moderate to high concentrations of defects (14-24%) allow for the accessibility of some interior MOF nodes but do not substantially promote diffusion into the framework. Individual control of defect levels and particle sizes through modulator selection may provide useful materials for small molecular catalysis and provide a roadmap for similar engineering of other zirconium frameworks.

Abstract
Mechanically interlocked molecules (MIMs) with discrete molecular components linked through a mechanical bond in space can be harnessed for the operation of molecular switches and machines, which shows huge potential to imitate the dynamic response of natural enzymes. In this work, rotaxane compounds were adopted as building monomers for the synthesis of a crown-ether ring mechanically intercalated covalence organic framework (COF). This incorporation of MIMs into open architecture implemented large amplitude motions, whose wheel slid along the axle in response to external stimulation. After impregnation with Zn2+ ions, the relative locations of two zinc active sites (crown-ether coordinated Zn(II) and bipyridine coordinated Zn(II)) are endowed with great flexibility to fit the conformational transformation of an organophosphorus agent during the hydrolytic process. Notably, the resulting self-adaptive binuclear zinc center in a crown-ether-threaded COF network is endowed with a record catalytic ability, with a rate over 85.5 μM min-1 for organophosphorus degradation. The strategy of synthesis for porous artificial enzymes through the introduction of mechanically bound crown ether will enable significant breakthroughs and new synthetic concepts for the development of advanced biomimetic catalysts.

Abstract
The ubiquity of metal-organic frameworks in recent scientific literature underscores their highly versatile nature. MOFs have been developed for use in a wide array of applications, including: sensors, catalysis, separations, drug delivery, and electrochemical processes. Often overlooked in the discussion of MOF-based materials is the mass transport of guest molecules within the pores and channels. Given the wide distribution of pore sizes, linker functionalization, and crystal sizes, molecular diffusion within MOFs can be highly dependent on the MOF-guest system. In this review, we discuss the major factors that govern the mass transport of molecules through MOFs at both the intracrystalline and intercrystalline scale; provide an overview of the experimental and computational methods used to measure guest diffusivity within MOFs; and highlight the relevance of mass transfer in the applications of MOFs in electrochemical systems, separations, and heterogeneous catalysis.

Abstract
Nerve agents are tetrahedral organophosphorus compounds (OPs) that were developed in the last century to irreversibly inhibit acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and therefore impede neurological signaling in living organisms. Exposure to OPs leads to a rapid development of symptoms from excessive salivation, nasal congestion and chest pain to convulsion and asphyxiation which if left untreated may lead to death. These potent toxins are prepared on a large scale from inexpensive staring materials, making it feasible for terrorist groups or states to use them against military and civilians. The existing antidotes provide limited protection and are difficult to apply to a large number of affected individuals. While new prophylactics are currently being developed, there is still need for therapeutics capable of both preventing and reversing the effects of OP poisoning. In this review, we describe how the science of molecular recognition can expand the pallet of tools for rapid and safe sequestration of nerve agents.
