Metal-Organic Framework functionalized bipolar electrodes for bulk electroenzymatic synthesis
Résumé
Electrochemical regeneration of the cofactor nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) is crucial for the enzymatic synthesis of a variety of valuable chemicals. [Rh(Cp*)(bpy)Cl]+ has been reported as one of the most efficient non-enzymatic catalysts for electrochemical regeneration of NADH, but the efficiency of the existing systems is still far from satisfying. Here we propose to suspend metalorganic framework functionalized glassy carbon beads in a bipolar electrochemical cell under mechanical stirring for bulk electroenzymatic synthesis. The beads are modified with a metal-organic framework NU-1000 shell, in which [Rh(Cp*)(bpy)Cl]+ catalyst is incorporated via the solvent-assisted ligand incorporation approach. Enzymatically active 1,4-NADH is electrochemically regenerated, and finally bipolar electrochemical bulk conversion of pyruvate into L-lactate is performed in the presence of NADH dependent L-lactate dehydrogenase as a model system. The very high turnover frequency (TOF) of 3100±106 h-1 opens up promising perspectives for employing this concept also for various other electroenzymatic bulk processes.
