Anthraquinone Derivative Chiral Schiff Base Copper(II) Complexes for Enzyme Type Bio-Fuel Cell Mediators

چکیده
Electrochemically, laccase, a family of multi-copper oxidase, has specificity for performing not only one-electron oxidation of phenolic-related compounds but also four-electron reduction of oxygen, which is expected to be a cathode of biofuel cells. We have prepared three amino-acid derivatives (for enhancing affinity to laccase) and one control (just for determining redox behavior of ligands and Cu(II/I)) copper(II) complexes 0-3 having phenolic-related ligands involving anthraquinone moiety. Enhancing current density of electron transfer between the cathode (composed of electron conducting materials such as Nafion and carbon nanotube) and laccase could be observed for all 1-3 acting as good mediators according to (spectro)electrochemical results.

A combinatorial in situ three-component chiral oxazoline-Schiff base copper(II) complex catalyst formation method was developed. This simple combinatorial chiral catalyst approach provided a modular library of chiral oxazoline-Schiff base copper(II) complex catalysts. The catalytic activity of these in situ generated catalysts can be rapidly and conveniently evaluated in the asymmetric Henry re...
