Phenylglycine amphiphile-metal ion chiral supramolecular nanozymes for enantioselective catalysis

Chem Commun (Camb). 2024 Apr 4. doi: 10.1039/d4cc00637b. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTL/D-Phenylglycine amphiphiles and metal ions with peroxidase-like activity self-assembled into chiral nanoribbons, which act as efficient chiral supramolecular nanozymes for catalyzing the 3,4-dihydroxy-L/D-phenylalanine (L/D-DOPA) oxidation reactions. The catalytic efficiency and enantioselectivity are dominated by the chirality transfer and the synergistic effect between the metal ions and chiral nanoribbons.PMID:38572692 | DOI:10.1039/d4cc00637b
