A facile and scalable strategy was proposed to prepare MOF-derived CoPx (x = 0, 1/2, 1) nanoparticles embedded in hairy nitrogen-doped porous carbon (CoPx@NCNTs) polyhedrons for electrochemical sensing of p-nitrophenol (p-NP). After pyrolysis of ZIF-67 with a slow heating rate and subsequent phosphidation treatment, the obtained CoPx@NCNTs had excellent electrical conductivity, ultrahigh electrochemically active surface area (ECSA), favorable interface properties, preferable internal diffusion properties, unique pore structures, and CoPx nanoparticles for molecular recognition as well as nitrogen doping and confined CoPx nanoparticles for synergistic catalytic effects. As a result, the prepared sensor based on CoPx@NCNTs exhibited superior electrochemical performances for p-NP detection with a low limit of detection (LOD) of 0.79 nM, a high sensitivity of 802 mu A mu M-1 cm(-2), a broad linear range from 0.0025 mu M to 1 mu M, and a broad logarithmic range from 1 mu M to 1000 mu M. Moreover, the prepared sensor displayed excellent anti-interference ability toward a variety of benzene derivatives, prominent reproducibility, superior stability, and achieved practical applications for p-NP detection in tap water and pond water.
