The novel metalorganic framework-derived NiCo2O4 with enhanced catalytic activity serves as an effective sensing platform for detecting various compounds with low detection limit and broad linear range. The enzyme-like properties of NiCo2O4 contribute to the sensitive chromogenic sensing performance for detecting Cu2+, Fe3+, and other compounds.
Integration of novel bio-/nanostructures as effective sensing platforms is still of great significance for robust and rapid analysis. Herein, a novel metalorganic framework-derived NiCo2O4 was synthesized via a feasible templating method. Significantly, redox couples of both Ni3+/Ni2+ and Co3+/Co2+ provided richer oxidationreduction reactions, thereby leading to an enhanced catalytic activity. Furthermore, NiCo2O4 as an enzyme mimic with peroxidase-like activity and oxidase-like activity could oxidize colorless thylbenzidine (TMB) to blue oxTMB in the absence of H2O2. Thus, a sensitive chromogenic sensing platform for detecting Fe2+, thiourea, cysteine (Cys), and epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) was proposed. The colorimetric detection methods exhibited great features of low limit of detection (LOD) and broad linear range. Owing to the complexation reaction, the chromogenic sensing system of TMB + NiCo2O4 + Cys achieved effective detection of Cu2+ and Mn2+ with the LODs of 0.0022 and 0.0181 mM, respectively. Developed detection methods with wide linear ranges of 0.008-0.1 mM for Cu2+ and 0.08(-1) mM for Mn2+ had excellent practical potential. Similarly, the reaction system of TMB + NiCo2O4 + EGCG could achieve the colorimetric detection of Cu2+ and Fe3+. The great chromogenic sensing performance for detecting Cu2+ and Fe3+ with a broad linear range and a low LOD could be also realized.
